Actual fake news:

Fox News published digitally altered and misleading images on its website’s homepage Friday that made a demonstration in Seattle, in which a group of largely peaceful Black Lives Matter protesters have occupied six city blocks, appear violent and dangerous.

The deceitful tactic was called out by The Seattle Times. The local newspaper reported that when it asked Fox News about the images, the network removed them.

“Oh, you noticed that? Well fine, we’ll take them down then. Excuuuuuse us.”

Fox News’ depiction of the demonstration mirrors much of right-wing media’s attempt to portray it as menacing. Protesters have declared a small slice of Seattle an “autonomous zone” after clashes with authorities led police to evacuate a precinct. While there have been some sightings of armed individuals, the area has remained largely peaceful with people gathering for food, speeches, and movie screenings.

Well we can’t have that. We have to squash it. How do we do that? By telling the world it is what it isn’t.

Among the photos that Fox News published on its homepage was one that showed a protester running past a burning vehicle and building with the headline “CRAZY TOWN” blaring across the website. The image, which accompanied a story about the situation in Seattle, was in fact taken from the unrest last month in Minnesota.

Well they’re only a couple of thousand miles apart.

In other photos that showed the scene in Seattle, Fox News digitally added an image of a man armed with an assault rifle.

Fox told more lies in its explanation to the Seattle Times.
