My favorite was when CNN insisted that Comey would deny everything Trump said under oath.

Pissgate was kind of hilarious when you think about it. CNN broke the story, Buzzfeed published all the ridiculous details so we all knew CNN was full of shite.

Then multiple news orgs claimed they saw the report but didn't publish because they couldn't verify any of it.

I don't know. I think this one has to fall behind Joe and Mika claiming they had proof of blackmail

I mean at least Comey story they can claim they had bad sources

But did Joe and Mika have bad sources saying that they had blackmail information that they didn't really have?

Seth Rich or the birther scandal. The mental gymnastics you have to jump through to believe either story would get you a gold at the summer Olympics.

Muh Russians in general was pretty bad. Only a nutty conspiracy theorist would believe that Trump was some kind of Russian agent. It's awesome how all of these news orgs insisted that the election couldn't be stolen when Trump suggested it. Then change completely when Hillary's defeated campaign mentions it.

I also enjoyed seeing so much time devoted on CNN to discussing concentration camps for homosexuals. That was an oldie from right after the election.

Once you realize that people in power will do anything to keep it, it's not that far fetched.

Pepe the frog being labled a Nazi on CNN was the most surreal thing I've ever seen.

That was clearly a directive from the Hillary camp.

I'm still surprised at how long the Russians conspiracy stayed on some networks despite a complete lack of evidence.

Then almost nothing about the content of the leaked DNC emails or the Yates unmasking.

Are we talking about the pee pee or the collusion? Collusion is still being covered with no evidence whatsoever

Yep. The fake new about golden showers from Russian hookers is pure entertainment. That's my favorite fake news story.
