By these fine upstanding legitimate news sources that vet their news???

They gave us this horror show.

"If it's not being reported by Reuters, AP, CNN, MSNBC, MSN, NBCnews, CBSnews, etc. Legitimate news orgs that at least have a vetting procedure in place "

Reuters is the only legitimate one of the bunch.

Cripe.
