It was big enough that I saw it and I've haven't followed politics in the Americas much lately and it is illustrative of a larger problem. There has been much larger stories that are misconstrued and not corrected. But thanks for the link though. I said pretty big Gaius, not huge.

However, when this was pointed out, the illuminati adjudged her narrative had "symbolic truth" even if it was not factually accurate. That's a problem that Newsweak imbecile Evan Thomas had with the Duke Lacrosse team story---you know, the narrative fit his bigoted preconceptions, so that when the facts contradicted Thomas's factitious take on the stripper's lies, Newsweak was still on the side of the good guys, even if Newsweak was wrong. That's the way the self-importance frauds present stories nowadays in the MSM. Menchu at least had the moral fiber to deny the fictions in the press, even though they might be "symbolically true" to a mandarinate of eunuch arbiters.
