    Much like Trump, you should take everything he posts literally. Words have no meaning.

    This is despicable. And 100% in line with GOP values. Hope you're proud of yourselves.

    Hey dumb-dumb, the "report" was from the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a one man organization, based in the U.K.

    Reuters passed along this "report" in a tweet, without verifying it, reporting on it, or even writing a story based on it.

    I don't think a news wire should be in the business of passing along rumors? Do you?

    Who else's unverified rumors should Reuters give worldwide attention to?

    Yeah. It only has 2,192 pages because QWBY keeps deleting his mean posts about me. Should be about 5,000.

    The report was correct!!!! WTF is wrong with you? You asked if any place else reported this and it took me less than 30 secs to find the ABC REPORT that had a US official confirming planes had taken off from the airport. I am not judging the success or failure of the mission. Just pointing out how easy it was to find out the REPORT was correct. You idiot.

    You might want to check the timeline between the Reuters tweet and ABC getting a statement from the military.

    It was an unconfirmed rumor, not worthy of repeating when Reuters sent out that tweet.

    There's a reason no reputable news org spread Cernovich's report that Susan Rice had unmasked the identities of Trump associates in intel briefings. Only when Eli Lake was able to report the same, did other outlets pick up the story -- crediting Lake for having broken the news.

    As I said, if you had any integrity left at all, your next response would be to admit you were wrong. The only dumb thing I did was to expect honesty or integrity from you.

    The report you were whining about was proven to be correct. The media you are whining about got it right. You tried to run away from your failure by claiming there was no report at all. Upon my discovery of your post calling it a report, you went back to whining about the reporting, which was accurate.

    Now let's try this again, YF. Admit you were wrong when you claimed there was no report. Admit that the report was proven correct. You are free to express your uninformed opinion of the reporting, but those two statements are correct.

    Oh, look, here's the wonder boy, Ben Rhodes, using the Reuters tweet to imply the strike was a failure, and to justify the lack of any response from President Obama.
