    Even if this particular story isn’t (I have no way to verify that), Fox “News” is known for spreading lies and far right propaganda that actively harms the interests of the US and the American people. Any link to any of their sites generates traffic for them and helps them further their nefarious agenda.

      With all due respect, I’ve heard the same about CNN, MSNBC, NPR, and basically every single news outlet at this point. If I wrote off all of them in perpetuity, I’d be left with nothing. I prefer to critically analyse news myself. Ideally there are multiple reports on important stories, and I can read from multiple ideological perspective. Someone recommended ground.news to me the other day, and they do an amazing job of collating multiple articles for the same story. It’s quite remarkable how far apart U.S. news articles can be when they report the same story. None of them appear capable of reporting stories without injecting political bias.

        Well, your method for verifying information sucks then.

        If you are lumping NPR and FOX News into the same trust bucket, your radar for truth is way way waaaaaaaay off.
