Journo pushes lie about Trump supporters. The schooling that came next will crack you up

As Twitchy reported earlier this morning, Newsweek writer Kurt Eichenwald pushed out a total lie about Trump supporters booing astronaut John Glenn, the American hero who passed away yesterday. It was a staggering example of how such lies from the Left can spread.

I need another lecture about #FakeNews from the media @JimmyPrinceton

Curious, isn’t it? How the media wants to lecture everyone ELSE on “fake news,” when they are the perpetrators.

Yes, just a mistake to slander people you despise because of who they voted for. It happens. https://t.co/l9NDGCjPeR

So weird! It’s almost as if alleged journalists do that on purpose, but that has to be crazy talk, right? Well, Eichenwald didn’t get away with it this time. Happy warriors schooled the tool and it was awesome.

Booing was aimed at protesters who disrupted Trump's praise of Glenn.

Remember – retraction journalism is worse than clickbait. Just say whatever the fuck you want and "correct" yourself later. Damage done. https://t.co/qlS05Xjcho

Award winning #FakeNewsJournalist had to retract his #FakeNews tweet "believes" it was an error but still not sure. #MediaLies https://t.co/ffIbFEmKCv

"I believe I was in error" translates to "I suffer chronic butt hurt and I am an insufferable ass". Basically. https://t.co/ISKR1i5P5u

Snort. Yep, keep digging, media. We LOVE it and so does President-elect Trump.

And some exit advice for the poor fool:
