'NO one thought to fact-check?' Rolling Stone, Rachel Maddow BUSTED pushing FAKE story about OK hospitals overwhelmed with horse dewormer ODs

We’re not sure who’s dumber at this point, Rachel Maddow or Rolling Stone. Maybe it’s a TIE!

Rolling Stone fell for a story told to them by Dr. Jason McElyea who claimed Oklahoma hospitals were overwhelmed with horse dewormer overdoses. They were in fact SO overwhelmed that gunshot victims were left waiting OUTSIDE because there was no space for them.

Which of course, was a damn lie the hospital itself debunked.

FYI, the doctor interviewed for that Rolling Stone article hasn’t worked at the hospital he claims to work at for over 2 month. pic.twitter.com/7K4i3ds6DG

You’d think someone would at least contact the hospital to make sure this story is legit, right?

Rolling Stone runs a story based off an interview a doctor gave in Oklahoma, didn’t call any hospitals to confirm if what he said was true and a hospital had to explain his claims were false.

Meanwhile this story has spread & the damage is done.https://t.co/OwVINHGOXx pic.twitter.com/21B2mcuImr

This is what always happens and sadly, the mainstream media doesn’t care. Hey, it’s a story that hurts a certain group of people? BONUS POINTS.

Rolling Stone, voice of the establishment https://t.co/2JPn3IUGBL

Never thought we’d see that and yet here we are.

Look at all those people with gunshot wounds waiting in line in coats … during the summer.

They didn’t even bother to find a picture that could PASS as real.

This story is a lie from top to bottom, invented from whole cloth according to the hospital system in the area. The hospital claims this alleged doctor hasn’t worked in their hospital in months and that it hasn’t treated anyone for ivermectin “overdoses.” https://t.co/HlYlPBVrYJ pic.twitter.com/ux4MHsofdu

A lie from the beginning to the end, no one thought to fact-check and gosh, Twitter has left it up and has yet to put any sort of warning that the story is FAKE, FALSE, A LIE on it. Almost as if they only care about a warning when it’s an account of someone whose politics they disagree with.

But they’re not a publisher or anything.

From Rolling Stone, to Maddow & no one thought to verify this guy's story. They published it and put it on tv and no one checked it. Purposeful malfeasance, and no one will lose a job over it. https://t.co/mpJaa49gzi

And no one will lose a job over it.

Nope.
