Viral Fake News Screenshot Montage

A series of images posted to Imgur document hypocrisy, contradictions, and inconsistencies from left-wing and Democrat-aligned news media outlets.

There are 13 of them. Too many to post here. But they’re all excellent. Here are just a few of my favorites.

CILLIZZA COVERS FOR CLINTON ‘TIL HE CAN’T

CNN’s Chris Cillizza, an alumnus of The Washington Postsought to deride those who commented on observations of Hillary Clinton’s poor health. Days later, after video emerged of the former first lady’s collapse at a 9/11 memorial event — which was not captured by any the aforementioned news media outlets — he acknowledged what had critical observers of politics and news media had suspected for years. He presents himself as an objective and non-partisan news media figure. CNN and The Washington Post, which share informal business relationships with each other, both present themselves as politically objective and non-partisan news media outlets.

YOUTUBE’S LACI GREEN’s 180-DEGREE POST-ELECTION REVERSAL

Laci Green, a self-described “sex educator” and “rogue feminist,” called for nebulous national unity while under the impression that Hillary Clinton would be elected president. Her view changed following the election of Donald Trump as president and Republican majorities in both houses of Congress.

Green currently hosts a show on MTV, has 1.5 million subscribers to her YouTube channel, and has collaborated with Planned Parenthood on ostensibly educational projects.

MELANIA’S WHITE OUTFIT IS RACISM, BUT CLINTON’S WHITE OUTFIT IS AWESOME

The Philadelphia Inquirer‘s Elizabeth Wellington fretted that Melania’s all-white outfit at the 2016 Republican National Convention was a racial signal that “white is always right.” Hillary Clinton’s all-white outfit, however, “told America loud and clear that she joyfully accepted the opportunity to run for president of the United States of America.”
