What about The Washington Post retracting parts of their Steele Dossier/Russian Collusion articles?

The Media Critic for the Post, Eric Wemple, criticised CNN and other news organizations for not correcting their stories and on Friday the Post itself changed stories it had earlier published (and received Plitzer Prize for).

"The Post’s decision to edit and repost the Millian stories is highly unusual in the news industry.
Mainstream publications often add corrections to published stories when credible new information emerges...But it’s rare for a publication to make wholesale changes after publication and to republish the edited story, especially more than four years afterward."
Questions raised by some: Why didn't the Mueller investigation reveal the lack of substantive sources?

I think the bigger story is Trump colluding with Russia, but I guess the Fashies don't care about that.

@PrincessAwesome you’re wrong princess . That’s the whole point.
@PrincessAwesome The "collusion" claim was based on this and on there being "reliable sources" for it.
And please do not use opprobrious words like "Fashies" for people you don't know.

@LamontCranston The collusion claim was based on meetings between the Trump campaign and Russian intelligence agents. The Republican led Senate Intelligence Committee found that collusion occurred.

@LamontCranston Well Mueller proved that at least the collusion part was true. But I guess if you oppose Democracy, that doesn't matter.
And I'm positive that the people defending Fashies are Fashies.
@PrincessAwesome He did not prove that part of the collusion was true. The convictions were for other things.

@LamontCranston He proved that Russian officials offered the Trump campaign assistance in the election, they accepted, and then a "secret meeting" was held.
If you don't think that's enough evidence, you probably also think OJ didn't kill his wife.

@PrincessAwesome Well,considering the fact that there's no evidence that it actually happened.....
PrincessAwesome · 22-25, F
@DavidT8899 Of course there isn't. Also, Antifa did 1/6.
DavidT8899 · 22-25, M
@PrincessAwesome Well,as to your second point,I don't recall anyone saying Antifa was involved in 1/6.But there has been indications that undercover F.B.I angels were provoking the crowd at the captial.As to to your first point,you might want to consider the fact that the only criminal indictments-and convictions-have been issued against the people who were running the Russia investigation.

@DavidT8899 I know, I'm making fun of you for being an NPC.
Funny how Fashies claim that police were trying to provoke the crowd, but y'all trying to block an investigation.
