I didn't believe this story when it first broke. I hope that girl that made the story up gets kicked out of school.

Little does this self-proclaimed victim, attention-seeker know that God hates a heart that devises wicked schemes and a false witness who pours out lies (Prov 6:18-19).

Meanwhile, BYU should sue all the major newspapers for big bucks that slandered the institution.

The mainstream media keeps making this mistake over and over again. There's no excuse for this. Nick Sandmann won lawsuits against NBC, CNN, and The Washington Post after they slandered him based on a short video that was edited to make him look bad.

These corporate media companies have a ton of resources. But instead of assigning investigative reporters to verify a story, they just publish it without fact-checking it first.

Even in my early days of writing for Sports Eye, my editor Jack Rubin would come over to me with some sort of racing news that came over the wire, or something that he heard from the pipeline and he'd say, "get on the horn to all of your contacts and find out everything you can about this".


I know someone who used to freelance for the NY Times and he told me that they used to have a three-step verification method for all stories but they gave it up.

Bob,

Good post!

This is no mere mistake. This is deliberate disinformation in order to pursue a political agenda and influence public opinion. It was no coincidence that the school slandered is a religious one (albeit a cult) who nonetheless bills itself as "Christian".
