This horse shit is why we no longer trust sources who in the past we could trust.

WaPo printed a false series of articles in early 80s on an 8yr old heroin addict. There was a Pulitzer involved. When the falseness of the story became known. WaPo took the hit. Admitted their mistake, declined the Pulitzer.

Did the correct thing.

I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say media is responsible for the 16 election.

On the love letter point, he is fact checking something Clinton didn't even say. She only "SUGGESTED" that Trump sent love letters.

Has the WP ever fact-checked Trump's suggestions?
