'Gorilla channel' warfare: Parody book excerpt fools Trump trashers
Fox News ^ | January 5, 2017 | Adam Shaw

Posted on 01/06/2018 2:26:17 PM PST by Enchante

One of the most entertaining "excerpts" circulated from Michael Wolff's explosive tell-all was a passage describing President Trump supposedly watching a “gorilla channel” for hours on end.

The excerpt, of course, was a parody and wasn't actually from the “Fire and Fury” book.

But it managed to fool plenty of Trump critics anyway, with an MSNBC contributor and others initially appearing to treat the passage as legit.

This last year would have been as dull as the previous 8, if Hillary had been elected.

Every week and nearly every day we have something new to smile about, and usually it involves Libs in meltdown.

I admit, I am disappointed.

I had hoped there was a gorilla fighting channel. Not that I would spend 17 hours a day looking at it, but it would be funny.

That wasn’t a “gorilla channel”...it was just CNN, and Wolff reported it wrong.

It was a CNN panel discussion, and they were throwing dung at one another arguing over Trump.

Perhaps Trump’s new Secret Service Code Name should be “Silverback”.

Of course they fell for it -- and the various "fact checking" and "urban legend" sites will carry water for the stupid a-holes. Thanks Enchante.
