The Associated Press’s tweet following the death of former President George H.W. Bush was shameless enough, but what’s included in a New York Times obituary isn’t much better:
The @nytimes should be ashamed of itself reviving this canard the morning after he died. pic.twitter.com/elMQYw7tY6

The @NYTimes obituary for @GeorgeHWBush revives a 1992 media campaign smear that has been long debunked as Fake News. Shameful.

Wow. Just because the “fake news” is decades old doesn’t mean the Times can’t try to give it new life:
Ann Compton who was there said it was completely BS https://t.co/oLEJQpLCtZ pic.twitter.com/5bZFliKBej

All the “fake news” that’s fit to reprint!
The media has no shame.

The best part is that by "his critics" they mean… the New York Times

Again, reporters will wonder why so many Americans think they’re biased hacks who suck at life. https://t.co/giUlPmBNST

Liberals are not your friends. They will never treat your fairly, even when you die. I don't understand why so many people on the right still insist on sucking up to them. They'll be nice if you serve a purpose. As soon as that purpose is served, it's back to normal. https://t.co/v5uE2aypW1

This is how @nytimes treats a "good conservative" … the morning after his death. This is the disdain @nytimes has for their political enemies: they lie to make them look bad IN THEIR OBITUARY. https://t.co/uITY9cLzZm

And yet the MSM remains completely baffled as to why so many people distrust the media.
