    Is posting fake news on Facebook ok? What if you're a State Official???
    Hello:

    Apparently THIS state official thinks posting Fake News (otherwise known as LIES) is just fine and dandy.. In fact, he's proud of it.. He posted stuff like there were Islamic terrorists training at a compound outside of Houston, and that the Communist Party endorsed Hillary Clinton for president.

    How about on the fake news channels if you're the Secretary of State?

    My friend posts he is the real Pope because of something that happened in Rome a few hundred years ago. Huh?

    But at least 2/3 of the news and I think more, is false, twisted and untrue in so many ways. (for both sides)

    Tal ,are you still defending Evita claiming the Benghazi attack was about a video about Mohammed ? If you are then you are the only person left in America doing so.

    The FAKE NEWS sources are ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, NPR and CNN ,all of them have been caught lying, and fabricating fake news over the years. All of them were working WITH the DNC and against Trump and that totally destroys any credibility and impartiality. A number of them were caught rigging the debates and feeding information to the DNC and getting querstions FROM the DNC.

    But then, some people WANT to hear fake news and not what's really going on in the world. Most of them Vote Democrat.

    And this PizzaGate crap....sounds just like this Video the same fake news sources blamed Benghazi over. But then some people still believe it was all over a video because Hillary said so. The fact she was passed out drunk that night doesn't matter.

    Hello again, smoothy:

    Well, of course you SAY that, but all you got is your flapping gums. You have no links, and when asked to provide them, you have a snit. Unless your claims are BACKED up with RELIABLE sources, they're CRAP..

    If you noticed, my claim IS backed up. Do you see those blue letters??? Do you know what they are??

    PS> It would be easier if you'd just copy and paste the following.. You may use it at your pleasure..

    I guess the elector revolt was some more fake news .So far the only faithless electors
    I know of are the ones who cast ballots for Colin Powell instead of Evita. I think some voted for Bolshevik Bernie instead of Evita also.

    Let's face it, the only news anyone should trust as real are the events you actually see with your own eyes, the words you actually hear with your own ears. Everything else should be questioned and taken with a grain of salt.

    In this age, where making a fake video, literally putting words into people's mouths, is something a 5 year old can do, you should question everything you see, read or hear. That's just common sense.

    Alcoholics aren't passed out drunk during the day ever?

    #1 is it WASN'T about any Youtube video... and it never was despite lies...

    #2 that they claimed they didn't know anything about it for hours... BS, they have live feeds and data lines to locations that monitor them (I've been to all of them numerous times). They knew what was happening within a minute or so assuming it took that long to be noticed.

    #3. THey claimed there was nothing that could be done... again total BS. We had a rapid reaction force in Sicily since at LEAST when Reagan was in office, BECAUSE of the stunts Quadaffi was always pulling... and they could have had the first team on the ground 45 minutes after being alerted. I also know it was there because I worked with them and every other base in the entire region when I was working over there during Desert Shield and Desert Storm.

    Look at Sicily on a map..Look at Libya...they aren't that far apart.

    And fact is... there hasn't been any journalistic integrity in my lifetime... except maybe a few individuals nobody ever heard of ( because its reasonable to assume SOMEONE in the field didn't push their, or their editors personal or political Bias, only that it was isolated and rare instances).

    And excon's links or anyone elses doesn't guarantee THOSE aren't FAKE news...because fake news has come from ALL of the major networks. It's the little guys they laugh at that get it right more often.

    Remember John Edwards...how all the Major networks claimed he was being unfairly treated....and it finally came out, it proved they were who was wrong all along.

    And like Alty said...if you didn't see it with your own eyes, and weren't there yourself...then you are just hearing someone elses version....and its always skewed intentionally and unintentionally due to their personal bias..their political bias...and even more so...the Bias their higher ups demands they put on it too if they want to stay employed.

    Even O'Keefe and his 'Veritas' crew pick who they expose. Now days you pretty much have to look at national media as a source for research leads.
