The guy who actually did it was a freelance writer who has written for many companies from huffpo to the WSJ. It was a childish stunt, but it wasn't done by the huffington post like some are claiming.

That pic may not have been him, but he's still been employed by them and many other liberal outlets, from what you are saying. The picture not being him doesn't mean the story is "fake news", only that that isn't the right picture of the perp.

ETA: As of Jan. 29, this article says he was employed by the Huffington post. He was arrested after crashing a republican event.

Ryan Clayton, a writer for the Huffington Post and a man with a history of violence crashed a republican gathering. He jumped on the stage and took control of the mic and began singing.

So you telling me the press didn't hand out flags is false. This guy has, if not currently, worked for the HuffPo within the past month, and he handed out Russian flags during Trump's CPAC speech. He is the press and he handed out the flags, no matter how much you want to lighten the situation.

Yes. I mean obviously if someone does something as a citizen it immediately means his contract employer set the whole thing up right?

Can you show me any proof that this was more than a dumb prank done by some activist? Just because he writes articles as a profession doesn't mean that's who did it. Can you not see the difference here?

No it's not at all. If he were there acting on behalf of a news organization i could understand this, but he wasn't. He was their as a citizen/activist. Csn you show me one bit of proof that he was there as press? Until then your claim makes as much sense as saying every atrocity done by a private citizen can be attributed to their employer. It makes no sense unless you can say the two were working together to orchestra or execute the stunt.

This guy has even been a contributer for fox news.
