    I'll also note that "Not A Thing," of which "Fake News" is a subset, is pretty doggone ecumenical ...

    I think that you and YF are trying to convince me that fake news is generated on the left as well as the right. You are preaching to the choir.

    But Jesus didn't have a falcon head. False equivalency!

    Exactly. Just like it isn't "fake news" to report James Comey's sham "reopening" of Hillary's email investigation a week before the election.

    Did the cops ever say that was a fact?

    I don't know. Probably not. I doubt that Kohn made it up, though. There's a distinction between those who generate fake news (Patriot News, Occupy Democrats) and those who pass it along (Flynn's kid, Kohn).

    No, that's not my goal. And actually, having mucked around in it a bit this morning (and yes, that verb is quite appropriate), I'm more inclined to your view. It is something of a new thing.

    You might want to double check on who the author of the piece was.

    Which one led to gunplay?

    I saw who it was.

    Why should I take his, and only his, word for it? If he could corroborate his stories, why didn't he?

    Kohn says the cops say it was a fact.
