..Fields and Ben Shapiro Resign from Breitbart after Fudging Story about Trump Campaign Manager
GatewayPundit ^ | March 14, 2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 03/14/2016 6:24:25 AM PDT by bobsunshine

Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields made headlines last week when she claimed Trump Campaign Manager Corey Lewandowski grabbed her and threw her down on the ground at the Jupiter, Florida victory speech on Tuesday night.

Video now proves that Fields exaggerated the story for some strange reason.

Right, Fields never claimed she was thrown to the ground. Grabbed, stumbled, and was bruised. Doesn’t matter because trump supporters here say she deserves it anyway.

But the video evidence does not show any grabbing or stumbling.... there is not even so much of a 'facial' grimace through out any of the videos. Fields made up this whole story from the get go... now it has reached the 'vast right wing conspiracy' level.... all to stop Trump in Florida...

I'm told that police in Palm Beach county are looking at charging Michelle Fields with filing a false police report. This should get interesting.Posted by Charles C. Johnson on Monday, March 14, 2016

Maybe this is all part of the Trump Master Plan.
1) Bring more publicity to the incident
2) Blame the victim
3) Use it as an illustration to show how Bill and Hillary would attack Bill's victims.

I haven’t had a chance to get home and watch the television today. I’m betting this will get a 2 second blurb at the bottom ticker and nothing more? After days of running this over and over and over again, and having guest upon guest comment on it on nearly every network?

I also like the vocabulary: “Fudging”

This was NOT “fudging”

I hope you are making the point that the contemporaneous account confirms the assault?

The audio describes an excessive grip on her arm.

But my main point is that the audio doesn't show her saying that she was thrown to the ground.

The audio does seem to show Terris fishing a bit.

Fox News just showed the new video with Howie Kurtz stating that it appeared that Lewandowski barely brushed Fields.

Oh ok I see now, you are a concern troll.

As if Trump needs to use dirty dem/eGOP tricks to get people’s attention.

All of his events are overflowing with people like has never been seen in primary history.

“Blame the victim.”

Yeah you did get that one right.

The people that are blaming the victim—which is Donald Trump—are this woman who has a history of this kind of stuff, Cruz, Fox News plus all the other news outlets, Ayers, Soros, Kasich, Rubio, Glenn Beckk, NRO etc should I go on?

You and others are exhibiting the Alinsky Clinton Rove Megyn Kelly Fox News style of attacks.

It’s looking more and more that it is Trump that will stand up to the wolves in sheep’s clothing and the bad guys here in the USA and around the world.

You do know that in FL they are seriously considering (if they haven’t done so already) filing charges against this low life faker for filing a false police report.

They resigned because they were going to be fired because Breitbart org wasn’t going to put up with their crap anymore.

What about the black guy that punched a white Trump supporter at a rally?

The news shows barely have showed that video, but they take up this fake cause as they are all in for destroying Trump.

Goon does not even come CLOSE to describing the guy in the video that grabbed her, bruising her arm, and throwing her to the ground.

That “guy” doesn’t even exist.

This woman in the past when she was part of the OWS movement, fell down in the street.

There is a picture of the police helping her up.

She used the picture to say that the cops were harassing her.

I am just surprised that Trump wouldn't want this story to die as quickly as possible unless he thinks he can play it for publicity somehow.

This whole thing could have just gone away quickly with Lewandowski just saying, "I don't know it could have happened when we were just trying to move Trump through the area" and issues an apology that her arm was bruised somehow in the process.

Like I said before, the whole thing is bizarre.

Terris saw the opportunity to join Fields in making names for themselves.

They were making it up on the fly.

Then when various videos came out their story was destroyed.
