      Yeah I watched the video. He didn’t say he fabricated the thing. He just said he would push any media story to further his goals. And then he backtracked a little. It was still slimy as fuck and he’s still an awkward little shit fucker but these misleading headlines piss me off.

        I was wondering, since we got that story on Friday about the woman who admitted to starting the whole thing who was now upset and ashamed that it had gained national notoriety.

        So it’s more that he took a news item he suspected was made up and ran with it anyway.

      It is worrying to see the total disregard for truth people have here, especially while calling out someone else as dishonest.

      There’s no way to misinterpret what he said accidentally as he explained what he meant, it’s just a full and easily disprovable lie of a headline.
