Conservatives and their fake news

Convicted felon Dinesh D’Souza, who is often described as an “intellectual conservative,” fell hook, line and sinker for that fake photo of Hillary Clinton with a “Confederate flag” on her bookshelf, debunked yesterday by LGF contributor “Vicious Babushka.”

In the replies to D’Souza’s tweet, numerous people have informed him it’s not real, but more than two hours after he tweeted it he still hasn’t corrected it, or answered any of these people.

At Talking Points Memo, Brendan James suggests D’Souza may have edited the image himself, but that’s unlikely. As we pointed out yesterday, the fake photo originally appeared on July 5 at this loonball right wing site. And they still haven’t corrected or retracted their post, either.

Conservatives will undoubtedly still be circulating this fake photo for the next ten years.

Here’s another popular conservative blogger who fell for this fake; @GayPatriot has nearly 48,000 followers.
