The right-wing Newsweek sowing more doubt with such tentative language in a headline: Newsom accuses the administration of fake imagery.

Newsweek has staff that can confirm the imagery as fake and more correctly report that the administration has actually released fake images, and not merely been accused of it by a detractor.

This kind of pussy-ass, soft-pedaled reporting underemphasizes the reality and seriousness of the situation.

Fuck Newsweek for not researching this and reporting on facts rather than just reporting a he-said, she-said event and moving on.
