Will Kamala apologize for calling this a 'high tech lynching'?

This was catnip to progressives. It had all the elements - MAGA hat, noose, bleach, homophobic slurs. It was wildly unbelievable from the start. MAGA goons wandering the streets after midnight in sub-zero weather, just waiting to prey on a two-bit actor. Yet, it was readily lapped up by the left and their staunch media allies.

Hope that loser spends time in jail for making a false report. Will Kamala and all the other pols who were so quick to adopt this story be held accountable? Of course they won't.

Did the media pay the him and the thugs to beat him up to invent a story?

This is as it was when he hatched his plan, a local issue now abused by the National media. People Magazine sales and nothing more. Pelosi and others should have stayed silent and let it play out - as it did. This is no different than the BS hoopla created after Benghazi when no one let it play out to discover the facts (different weight but I couldn’t come up with an equal as far as holding out for an investigation for alll the facts),

Some guy no one ever heard of (I assume) tried to get people to have heard of him by paying two guys to attack him.

Turns out he forgot to have the guys killed afterward so they couldn’t talk. Basic mistake.

and what makes news inaccurate and what makes news at all. Are you so far up Trump’s butt hole this task is impossible?

You link Pelosi being duped by this guys story and that to you makes it Fake news?

You and a full third of the nation have been duped by Trump, does that make the fact trump was elected Fake News?

You’ve been duped by the Republican Party for decades, does that make it Fake new? Of course not; it makes it news.

Fake news is when a media outlet invents a story or deliberately releases a story with false information to motivate it’s viewers or reader’s, traffics in it as does the FOX TV network - the National Enquirer - Breitbart and so on.

News outlets that traffics in baloney like calling into question Obama’s birth certificate when it’s known his birth place and views it as news worthy that’s Fake new - Reporting Donald Trump lying he has people working in Hawaii on his birth info that can’t believe what they are finding isn’t fake news it’s Just reporting that an idiot is lying. That’s actually news. When news outlets use that as a.basis for calling into question Obama’s birth place then that becomes Fake News.

Retracting at passage or correcting one does not make news fake.
