That is not true. Media finds an unnamed source who makes up the story and then they report it.
They must have plausible deniability.

I never thought I would live to see the day when the National Enquirer would be more trustworthy than the rest of them.

They watch CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC.
They read the NYTs and The Washington Post.

Almost Half of Voters Believe Media Makes Up Stories About Trump, the rest are certain the MSM news is all made up.
Even most lefties know it’s all fake, they just hate Trump so much they act like they think the crap is real.

More surprising, its not just Republicans or Trump supporters who believe this...... and the poll conductor, Politico, is one of the very worst offenders.

Why not? When it’s obvious someone hates and is obsessed with someone else, it brings their narrative of the person they hate into question.

I never thought I would live to see the day when the National Enquirer would be more trustworthy than the rest of them.As I recall, the National Enquirer went legit with Monica Lewinsky's Blue Dress during the Clinton regime.

Also, IIRC, National Enquirer broke the news about John Edwards’ mistress and illegitimate kid — also the similar news about Jesse Jackson.

It’s not that they BELIEVE it, it’s that they see it happening. What’s amazing is that half the population doesn’t see it.
