Well, conservatives, you’d better drop everything right now, because you’ve got some apologies to make. At least according to Vox’s David Roberts:
The entire right, including prominent media & political figures, spent yesterday pushing a "false flag" narrative about the bombs. They were incorrect & grossly irresponsible. Will there be any apologies? Professional consequences of any sort? At all?

If anyone should be apologizing right now, it’s David Roberts for that garbage tweet.
The entire right?

Great take there, David.
This is false.

I literally started my radio program saying the obvious suspect would be a deranged Trump supporter.
Just like the obvious suspect who tried to assassinate dozens of GOP congressmen last year was a deranged leftist.

We were among the many who called out Candace Owens for her “false flag” B.S., too. David must’ve been asleep.
“Entire right”? Thats intellectual dishonesty at its best.

This tweet is incorrect and grossly irresponsible.

it was a small portion of the right. It’s irresponsible to suggest it was the entire right. The vast majority of the commentariat was not making those claims, at all.
You’re a hack.

"The entire right."
False.
You're dismissed, hack. https://t.co/aysSaicPoD

Oh, it’s definitely bullsh*t.
But he’s not finished yet!
The defense I'm seeing here is that SOME figures on the right did NOT immediately latch on to a lunatic false-flag theory, so it wasn't the ENTIRE right, just a wide array of its media & political leaders. Again: this is the *defense*.
— David Roberts (@drvox) October 26, 2018
That’s actually a pretty good defense, David. Seeing as the “entire right,” is, in fact, not responsible for spreading the “false flag” theory.
From now on, the right gets a special gold star for each & every individual who *doesn't* endorse lunatic conspiracy theories.

Or you could just not say wrong shit to slime your political rivals!

What a novel idea.
