“ You could also consider Rather’s reporting on Nixon and Watergate misinformation as well.”

In the 80s Rather ran a special news report about the atrocities committed by US service men in Vietnam. All of his evidence was testimony from 4 or 5 veterans who, it was determined later, had never even served in Combat.

Misinformation has been around for a long time and CBS has led the way.

You notice that the left loves to use the word misinformation but then never provides concrete examples. Misinformation for the left is any reporting it doesn’t like.
