For some reason “if you like your plan you can keep it” comes to mind as something that might have been a “fact” that was filtered to fit a message, culminating in a “Lie of the Year” accolade.

Okay, now do Obama.

The mainstream media’s memory now seems to only go back as far as January 20th, 2017. They’re a little fuzzy on everything that happened before that.
