BuzzFeed, a popular news website, has once again been shamed for publishing fake allegations against Donald Trump. BuzzFeeds anonymously sourced report claimed that President Trump ordered his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to Congress about a proposed business deal in Moscow. Supposedly, two unnamed federal law enforcement officials claimed that Special Counsel Robert Muellers office had the goods. They were purported to have collected emails, texts, and testimony proving the explosive claim.
The story dominated the news on Friday, with Democrats calling for Trump to be impeached. MSNBCs Morning Joe opened with the announcement that this revelation was a big one. CNNs New Day host John Berman claimed the disclosure was so dramatic he almost spilled his coffee.

Wowser. What a scumbag. This Buzzard Feed ought to be sued out of existence and this Perretti dude in prison.
They have a history of impersonating conservatives online.
BuzzFeed should be listed under Fiction and Fantasy.
News just does not fit the organization.
Somebody needs to get this limped wristed metrosexual twerp in a room all alone and teach him some manners.
I read on the Drudge Report that this Buzzfeed guy gets the same high breaking fake news as he does from snorting cocaine.
Yep, lives up to the billing. Scumbag, lying, beta-male soy boy.
Most of the media wail and cry about letting Mueller do his job, yet when Mueller does his job, knocking down a pack of lies........
They run for cover.
Ohhhh, we said it was unconfirmed..... While they ran it as a breaking news banner and huffed and puffed with their panel of “experts”.
The MSM wont let this one go without a fight. Last night, the top news story on Twitter (a liberal headline 100% of the time, of course) was that Buzzfeed stands by their story.
What a plan! Create a website that appears to be operated by your political enemy, then use that website to ruin his reputation. Buzzfeed CEO Jonah Peretti must be the envy of leftist “journalists” worldwide.
