Saw it. FR was merely an also-ran on that one.
I agree that FR ain’t what it used to be. But, both the the WaPo and Baltimore Sun ran stories naming FR as a source of the bogus surgery story. In fact, it was debunked within an hour and a half by a Freeper of its being posted here from the sketchy blog.
What do you mean “also ran”?
Sorry the thread has degenerated into a mammoth bitchfest.
