As Twitchy reported on Thursday this week, the Washington Post wrote an entire piece accusing North Carolina Republicans of holding a surprise vote while Democrats were attending a 9/11 memorial all based on an accusation the governor made.
Which was not true.
But that didn’t stop WaPo from running with the story; they did later print a ‘clarification’ that basically contradicted the entire stupid story but that’s neither here nor there.
T. Becket Adams did a great job writing about it …
You may want to sit down for this one: A major newsroom published a bogus story this week casting Republicans as villains and Democrats as noble victims.
Big, I know.https://t.co/WPIVhpXBA7

And major newsrooms are usually so dependable and trustworthy.

i assure you it’s a coincidence that these media mistakes keep happening and that they all point in one direction. it is just a total coincidence, a mystery of nature like airplanes disappearing into the bermuda triangle

Total coincidence … it’s a mystery.
Totally.
Stay classy, WaPo.
