Looks like the rumors are starting to unravel. Feel the love, Harry... "A woman approached The Post with dramatic — and false — tale about Roy Moore. She appears to be part of undercover sting operation." https://www.washingtonpost.com/inves...=.13cbe742e5e4 Jeez, Tim, just when I thought you bottomed out on the scale of intellect, you come up with a story about the Washington Post carefully checking its sources... That's what real news sources do. They're not perfect in this, of course, but, unlike your rightwing news outlets, they do try. The NYT had a bit on this attempted scam by the rightwing: A woman with ties to a right-wing activist group falsely claimed to The Washington Post that she had conceived a child with Roy S. Moore, the Republican Senate candidate in Alabama, when she was 15, the newspaper reported on Monday afternoon. The woman, identified by the paper as Jaime T. Phillips, claimed in recent interviews with reporters that she had an abortion after having sex with Mr. Moore in 1992. But The Post said that it had discovered inconsistencies in her account and evidence that the woman concocted the sensational claim to try to dupe reporters and coax them into discussing the political impact her story could have on Mr. Moore. A reporter with The Post confronted the woman about the holes in her story on Wednesday and then Post journalists saw her on Monday morning entering the offices of Project Veritas, a conservative group that films undercover videos. The organization, led by the activist James O’Keefe, has recently targeted journalists, trying to goad them into revealing biases or unethical schemes to discredit the news media. “The intent by Project Veritas clearly was to publicize the conversation if we fell for the trap,” Martin Baron, the executive editor at The Post, was quoted as saying. “Because of our customary journalistic rigor, we weren’t fooled.” Sorry, Timmy, but your scamvangelist candidate Roy Moore has legitimately been called out as a pedophile who tried to rape a 14 year old girl and who sexually assaulted many other young women. But hey, that's ok with your fellow christians and I assume it is ok with you. I still think Scumbag Moore will win the election there. I'd love to be wrong on this. |
