When the story came out it seemed too good to be true.
Same thing happened with Darren Wilson’s supposedly broken orbital socket or Larry Reid supposedly hitting Harry.
Fake stories seem to get planted on less reputable blogs hoping they filter upstream to more prominent blogs so leftwing papers can ridicule and lambast them. Note it doesn’t say that the unknown blog got it wrong. It drags FR and TCT into it. Reading TCT it doesn’t do anything other than repeat the rumor with a warning of it being a rumor. With FR, it’s not a news site but more of an aggregator.
And yet the story is right wing news media got it wrong.
Watch out. This is happening too often for it to be incidental. Some folks out there are trying to poison the reputation of some sites.
The Left Wing have spent a very long time telling us that Brown was shot in the back, and they don’t seem to have recanted that yet.
They don’t have a reputation to lose.
