Ben Terris and Jabin Botsford Committed Journalistic Fraud at the Washington Post [VIDEO]
Danger and Play ^ | March 11, 2016 | Mike Cernovich

Posted on 03/13/2016 3:42:12 AM PDT by Silly

Jabin Botsford has been ordered by Washington Post reporter Ben Terris to cover up a media hoax, we can now report. (Credit for these shocking revelations goes to this Internet sleuth.)

When Michelle Fields was nudged during a Donald Trump press conference, Ben Terris blamed Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski. Fields went on the media circuit, accusing Lewandowski of assault. Her accusation was later revealed to be false.

Yet the story goes deeper. The Washington Post is actively covering up the false accusation against Trump’s campaign.

Very disturbing that a WaPo photog first denied via Twitter being at the event, then Tweeted he saw nothing, and then when he was confronted that the photo of the event was attributed to him, deleted the original Tweet denying he was present. Shameful. Kudos to Cernovich and "Jim" (MisterMetokur).

She should be thrilled that her video is about to go viral.

The Left in this country are truly despicable creatures. And the wonder why someone like Trump who is anti-PC and says what’s truly on his mind is being embraced by The People after a pathological Taqiyyan lying CIC has tried to reduce our nation to rubble by destroying our economy and importing our enemies en masse onto our shores for a hostile takeover.

Say goodbye to those careers. How can they be journalists when they are known liars to the world. True, many journalists are dishonest, but they haven’t been caught red handed like this.

Say hello to some expensive lawsuits to WaPo.

The rest of the media ran with the meme without even checking the facts.

That is why Trump says they are so dishonest.

Trump, right again—imagine that!

“Mr Constitution” Ted Cruz even used this false allegation in his condemnation of Trump for the Chicago protest and his SuperPac is using it in ads.

Fake and inaccurate. Funny how the “professional” journo-lists get trumped by some guy at home. These hipster reporters, not as slick as they think they are.

* Side note: Ms. Fields, lose the Valley Girl act.

I fell for Michelle Fields story at first.

My excuse is the excuse by older men in regards to younger women “There is no fool like an old fool.”

And this poor judgment and rush to smear by Ted/BLM needs to trumpeted often today.

What a fraud he has turned out to be.

Even Stevie Wonder can see what a fraud he is.

Hasn’t Fields done this schtick before?

I read somewhere that Allen West was the victim, but had no time to research it.

Thanks. Below is the online comment I just left at WaPo under the story where Ben Terris and photog Jabin Botsford perpetuate their hoax. Let’s see if it stays up or is deleted:

Smoking gun: WaPo photog Jabin Botsford tweeted a denial that he was at the event where Fields was allegedly... whatever (”I wasn’t at that event.”). Then Botsford tweeted he didn’t see anything (”I didn’t here [sic] of or see any assaults at that event.”). Huh? When confronted that a photo of the event was attributed to him (”So why is this photo attributed to you and licensing lists your name on it?”), he deleted the original tweet denying his presence, but it had already been archived. That damned Internet!

Terris and Botsford, do you deny this?

We now have plenty of videos and photos from several angles. No yank, no stumble, no assault. Just a whining, disappointed reporter baited by Terris. She took the bait, she exaggerated until it became an outright lie, and Terris had his story. Botsford played along by attempting to toss a tweet into the Memory Hole. How very 1984 of you.

WaPo, do you realize what you’ve just stepped in?
