That has happened in the past. The Dan Rather story on GWB and the Texas Air National Guard was questioned, and FR was identified as the origin of the questioning.
Before that, in earlier days of FR, the Clinton Body Count and the Clinton Chronicles.
The Vince Foster conspiracy theory ... the list is pretty long.
How much is true, how much is false?
As for whatever it is that "Q" posits, don't take it from the press. They always get the crux of the story wrong.
:^) Absolutely! Besides, I doubt any of the mockingbird media have bothered to read Q postings (drops). It is much easier and quicker to just say that 'Q followers' are rioters, seditionists... bed wetters.
Whatever Q is - or was - it was viciously attacked almost right from the start, a curious phenomenon. I mean, it is not like the media has hounded the KKK or other fringe groups; but they focused in on Q quickly and now uses Q as a cult of followers that blindly obey as they are led.
People will believe what they want to believe. Most of the media are obedient ignoramuses. That TV news anchor in Arizona nailed it well this week; her integrity finally got the best of her after 20 years of just reading whatever was handed to her.
