Dan Rather was NOT the birth of Fake News. He simply got caught. Thank you, Buckhead.

But there was NBC rigging that truck to explode. There was the misquote of Alexander Haig when Reagan was shot. For those who don’t know, Haig was asked who was in charge. Haig replied, “Here at the White House? I am.” The question was edited out and it was made to look as a power grab by Haig.

And then there was Walter Cronkite devoting that entire half hour to the Tet Offensive. We actually won that battle but Cronkite made it appear as if we were routed. That night, on CBS news, we lost the Vietnam war.

Fake news has been around for a very long time.

NBC = Comcast = American enemy more dangerous to the Republic than Russia or Iran

From back with the Vietnam War, until now, the Fake News expansion is amazing. Nothing is Real News now. Nothing.

Our Fake News now is all foreign propaganda to weaken us for invasion.
