As we told you yesterday, author J.K. Rowling tweeted several times about President Donald Trump “snubbing” a little boy in a wheelchair. Just one problem: Trump did stop to talk to the boy and shake his hand. The clip Rowling shared was an edited version:

The following day, Rowling’s “fake news” tweets remain, and Piers Morgan is among those wondering why:
So @jk_rowling still hasn't deleted her lies about Trump snubbing a disabled boy?
Why not?
She is all about honesty, right?— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) July 29, 2017
He DID shake the boy's hand.
Delete these lies. https://t.co/toQFxfnHqY— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) July 29, 2017
Stay tuned.
But @piersmorgan she is an expert at fantasy, why are you surprised? https://t.co/sTXjHysWYP

Don't agree with you often. But what see is doing is directly feeding into Trump's "Fake News" narrative ? https://t.co/WKCD7QPL9M
