.@daveweigel of the Washington Post just admitted that his picture was a FAKE (fraud?) showing an almost empty arena last night for my speech in Pensacola when, in fact, he knew the arena was packed (as shown also on T.V.). FAKE NEWS, he should be fired.

To put out fake pictures that are so obviously and easily proven to be fake - what is the point?

Because they are accustom to these tactics succeeding. It's so good to have a President who fights back.

I get the arena hours before PDJT arrived, but how did he get the President photoshopped in? Is it someone else, a different rally or what? If the WaPo phoney stated that the person entering was PDJT, he really should be fired.

Trump is a businessman, and businessmen know that making sure your customers are aware they are valued is key to success. Hence the rallies. (my take anyway)

It’s time to start banning these reporters and fake news outlets from the WH and the Congress .
Just refuse giving these frauds access .
Punish these frauds and make them pay a high price .
Enough of these Dem operatives.
It won’t stop unless they are stopped. and no access is a start .

So he deleted it AFTER he got called out by Martosko. But then says he was confused. Confused by what? Empty seats or not-empty seats? What is so confusing about them?

==

Bottom line: Weigel got caught posting a 'wrong' photo, got called on it, and is now trying to excuse it as his being 'confused'.

Another thing that has been a carryover is the media lying or downplaying Trump’s crowd size.

David W is the Leftist hired by the Compost as a fake conservative .
He was caught trashing the gop and conservatives and fired in 2010.

This scum is back again at the lying compost !

Wonder if fakebook will call in PolitiFake to say any story mocking the fake news’ fake photo is also fake. Trump has smoked out these fools.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/06/25/AR2010062504413.html

And the Compost hired him back !

nevermind.

I see the original Weigle tweet here:

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/939616077356642304/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fthehill.com%2Fmedia%2F364124-washington-post-reporter-apologizes-for-tweet-on-crowd-size-at-trump-rally

He posted the area seats empty and wrote in quotes “packed to the rafters”
Being sarcastic. HA! Take that smartass.

Weigel is probably as red-faced as Gloria Allred-face when her client admits the client modified the yearbook autograph -- sometime later.

Can't help but laugh when their excuses fall apart in front of them and they resort to damage control.

(see my reply 17 above)

The funniest thing here, to me, is that Martosko DIDN’T tell him!
Why lie about that?

He wasn’t confused. They know what BS they put out will be retweeted many times and the apology or retraction will not.

Jeremy Diamond of CNN did the exact same thing during the primaries, he posted pictures of a Trump rally in Little Rock. The problem was, the pictures were taken 2 or 3 hours before the rally actually started. It was the same Jeremy Diamond who just happened to be standing next to a black guy at another Trump rally, when the black guy started a disruption, and kept throwing himself to the ground to make it hard for security people to remove him. Naturally, Diamond sent the video, and claimed that white people at the rally were kicking the black guy, which was absolutely false.
