gftChris Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 So there was a lot of it about and one of the stories was 'pizzagate' - that a pizzeria was running a 'pedophilia ring' in the highest echelons of the democratic party out of its basement, despite the building not actually having a basement and there being no, you know, evidence at all. Fast forward to today, and some guy's gone there to 'self-investigate'..."The suspect allegedly walked into the restaurant and pointed the rifle at an employee, who managed to flee. He later fired the weapon. He has been charged with assault with a dangerous weapon." Fake news, what fun. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-38205885 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 It wasn't so much fakes news as a conspiracy theory from people on Reddit and 4chan. Nope... it was pure fake news. Saw an interview today with the admitted author of the original story. He said he made roughly $8000 off clicks associated with his webpage, a fake news outlet. The punchline... he voted for Hillary... but he took his news where the money was. Here's the link to the interview: LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump on Tuesday fired one of his transition team’s staff members, Michael G. Flynn, the son of Mr. Trump’s choice for national security adviser, for using Twitter to spread a fake news story about Hillary Clinton that led to an armed confrontation in a pizza restaurant in Washington.

It must, no reason to look into this And at the other end of the scale opposite on the horseshore of political fanaticism you have people willing to believe any bullshit about a republican that sounds bad. Like if I told you, Tony Waters, republican governor of Idaho and prominent family values, anti-LGBT campaigner and anti-immigration campaigner was caught with two terabytes of underage gay arab porn on his hard drive, people would start making memes all over the place. Except, there is no Tony Waters, governor of Idaho. Side note: I chose Idaho at random as a place nobody cares about. Turns out their governor is a guy called Butch Otter. For real.

OldBrownsFan Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I love how the mainstream media is preaching from the mountaintop against fake news. They have been guilty of editing videos to slant stories towards narratives they want to promote, have been found to be in collusion with democrats and have well documented biases and have no credibility to point fingers at anyone else in regards to false reporting.

They hear shit like democrats are running a pedo ring out of a pizza shop.....must be true. It must, no reason to look into thisI wouldn't go so far as frightening but it is understandable. Somebody puts up a fake website that looks like the Huffington Post it publishes a story which could easily be true why not? These days Americans don't trust the mainstream media anyway and beyond that they don't trust politicians. Beyond that stories like Bill Clinton gets b****** in White House might have seemed like a fake news story since it's from a minor league Source like The Drudge Report. And yet... The accusations against the president-elect during the campaign were Peppered with fake news but proudly run on ABC CNN MSNBC Etc. I don't think anyone spend hours researching each and every news story that looks legitimate. I'm assuming there actually was an earthquake in India yet I haven't spent hours finding out for sure.

Clevfan4life Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Thebproblem is anti lbgt/family values ngrs on the republican side are caught with rent boy weener in their mouth all the time.

Recall what really happened as opposed to the fake news story. He said if you were a star a celebrity you could do whatever you wanted and women would accept it. You don't think rock and roll musicians step off the stage take a Woman by the hand leader into the dressing room and have their way with her without a written consent form?
