ABC News aired a video on Sunday that host Tom Llamas said depicted a Turkish attack in northern Syria against Kurdish civilians. Turkey is indeed pushing into Syria and slaughtering Kurds along the way, but the video ABC News played last night is from a military gun demonstration in Kentucky that was published to YouTube in 2017.
This video, right here, appearing to show Turkeys military bombing Kurd civilians in a Syrian border town, Llamas said on the October 13 broadcast as the video played.

Maybe. But something tells me that Tom the Llama is so light in the loafers that if he did step on my neck, it would feel like I was getting a massage.

It isn’t laziness.
It’s deliberate.
Designed as propaganda to “get” Trump.
They have a narrative, and getting Trump—and us, through Trump—is it.
100% lies all the time. Not lazy, even they are. It is much more insidious than laziness.
This time it failed, due to sharp-eyed observers but let me say that...
They do it ALL the time. We miss as much as we catch, if not more.
I cannot watch the news, read newspapers or news magazines any longer, but when I do, I always wonder what bullshit are trying to sell me?
We all need to ask the same question.

Why?
The ever-present democrat media narrative: Get Donald Trump, defeat him, defeat his supporters, transform America.
Hail Socialism!

President should sign an FCC order stating that any news agency broadcasting false information is required to devote 50% of their broadcasting time apologizing for the false reporting until the next election cycle ends. Failure to comply will result in all broadcasting privileges forfeited until compliance is reached.
Easy to amend
Broadcasting false content during news programming
The FCC is prohibited by law from engaging in censorship or infringing on First Amendment rights of the press. It is, however, illegal for broadcasters to intentionally distort the news, and the FCC may act on complaints if there is documented evidence of such behavior from persons with direct personal knowledge.

After I made my comment, I read more of the replies, and realized that what they had done was deliberate. I should have known better, giving the deceptive nature of the media today. These people are as bad as Iran when it comes to faking stuff.

I don’t believe this is a quality control issue, or a lack of understanding and how to conduct research. It was fraud, and in their minds there’s a war on, and they just wanted dramatic photos of Tracer bullets flying. It’s like making the movie to them. We think it’s news, the truth is it’s just entertainment.

Leftist media is criminal. They hate you, they hate President Trump and if they could kill you and get away with it, they would.
