Wow, guys. Raw Story is really hitting it outta the park today. First, one of their senior editors shamed — and then blamed — GOP Rep. Steve Scalise for being the victim of an assassination attempt.
Now comes this:
WATCH: Meghan McCain tearfully opens up about drinking through her dad’s cancer https://t.co/dndcYO6a1D

Nice headline, Raw Story. Too bad it’s not even remotely accurate (starts around the 3:20 mark):
HuffPost’s Yashar Ali, who’s a rare media straight shooter, quickly called out Raw Story on their bullsh*t:
What the hell is this BS? @MeghanMcCain told a story about getting drunk with @HuntsmanAbby when she found out about her dad’s diagnosis and talked about drinking with colleagues a few times. The framing here is false and absurd. https://t.co/5JZ6fY1DHO

Ali is absolutely right.
Thank you @yashar !

I am so thankful for your sane voice Yashar.

Raw Story could learn a thing or two from Ali.
Completely irresponsible headline

How much time have you got?
This is BS. It’s not what she said.

Horrible, misleading headline. #ShameOnYou #FakeNews

She made jokes about drinking twice with her cohosts and THIS is your headline?
Be better than this.

They can’t. But you can bet they’ll find a way to be worse.
