The clip of the Kimmel segment was then shared by a pollster named Matt McDermott. As I write this, the clip has been liked more than 105,000 times and retrweeted nearly 50,000 times.

So millions have probably seen this lie by now.

Mission accomplished for Kimmel - spreading lies and fake information like all good Leftists.

Saw about 5 minutes of his program about 2 years ago (something about his sick kid or wife or whatever), thought this guy is a F#CKING ASS and never saw his crap program again.

Her original retweet with comment has itself been retweeted 4,400 times and liked 13,000 times. The correction will get a tiny fraction of that.

And that's how they do it. Report something false wall to wall, then run a brief correction only a fraction of those who saw the false reporting will see - the fake news is still true to 90% of those who saw it.

Ben Shapiro blew the lid on that being a false narrative as well - Shapiro has a daughter with a similar ailment who treated at the same hospital as Kimmel’s.

I thought that was pretty funny from Pence and the other guy.

These photo-ops always strike me as difficult. Obviously having the VP put some boxes on a cart is just a “publicity stunt”.

The main thing is that he goes out and can thank a few of the folks on the front lines dealing with the virus. And of course if he didn’t load a few boxes the liberals would complain that “Pence is above getting his hands dirty and doing any real work. All he does is talk.”

So, reporters do not investigate anymore?

Kimmel lied. He said “Pence pretending to carry empty PPE boxes.” Pence didn’t pretend to carry empty boxes. If Kimmel had said Pence JOKED about carrying empty boxes....

Think about this... if Kimmel's idea of humor and entertainment is THIS TYPE of TWEET than it's no wonder that the GREG GUTFELD show on FOX is pulling much HIGHER RATINGS than Kimmel, Fallon, and Colbert.

As entertainers the NETWORK late night hosts are slowly fading into the sunset!
