“That was the story at the time. I didn’t make it up.”
Show me the assertion in the media, and I will believe you didn’t make it up.

Happened before the fake news hysteria. Since you appear to have no life go and search for yourself. Again, I would not have brought it up if it didn’t happen. Thanks for playing and Have A Nice Day.
