They lied about the DNC hacks being the Russians when it was likely an insider like Seth Rich (RIP).

And was only 27 years old!

...just how is the Washington Post any different from the "fake news" it has been deriding on a daily basis ever since its endorsed presidential candidate lost the elections?

Such low-hanging fruit there. The difference is WaPo really does publish fake news.

All this said and done, FR has trolls (perhaps unwittingly) spreading Russian propaganda.

[DoughtyOne]

...oh and by the way. Pages two through thirty-two may also be fake.

[Bullish]

“Fake news” = propaganda = the Washington post’s stock in trade.

Liberals always project on others what they’re guilty of in spades.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The Ministry of Propaganda is the source of the fake news.

You are probably right that Seth Rich was the source of the DNC e-mail leak for which he was killed.

[Secret Agent Man]

And now the uniparty media starts the walkback.

Jill the shill is gonna be the willing patsy stuck on the plank.

“Russian propaganda effort helped spread ‘fake news’ during election, “

Not Russian, but Marxist/Socialist.
Spread by .... CNN and The Washington Post.
Not just during the election, but for over 10 years.

the backtrack wouldn’t have anything to do with Naked Capitalism threatening to sue them ?

[dila813]

I think anyone who ever read a legitimate story sue them, you have a right to know

[Steve_Seattle]

From the Post's backpedaling statement:

"The Post, which did not name any of the sites, does not itself vouch for the validity of PropOrNot’s findings regarding any individual media outlet, nor did the article purport to do so."

Irrelevant and dishonest. The article wanted to collectively smear the websites, without any solid evidence, as part of a campaign to delegitimize dissenting voices.

I haven’t read the comments yet, but I can’t read the words ,”crisis of confidence” without thinking of Jimmah Carter. Permanently etched into my mind.

[Newtoidaho]

I think it is safe to assume that any thing published by any part of the “mainstream media” is fake news.

[Uncle Miltie]

So the Fake News meme was itself Fake News.

Wtg WaPo.
