Imagine that. After getting sued for $250 million, little Falmer Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post finally decides to fix their fake news, slandering the Covington boys during the whole Nathan Phillips charade. The Washington Post also deleted other fake news tweets thinking that somehow that would keep them out of any liability. Sorry WaPo hacks, thousands, if not millions of screenshots of your fake news tweets are all over the Internet. Check out this “correction” tweet from the Washington Post issued today, to fix a fake news story from January 18th:
| Washington Post waits six weeks to correct fake news about Covington boys |

The Post has issued an Editor’s Note about updates to its initial coverage of the Jan. 18 incident at the Lincoln Memorial: https://t.co/rhzKZ1715K
We’ve also deleted this Jan. 19 tweet in light of later developments. For more, see the Editor’s Note. pic.twitter.com/O7qCSnBMPO

The tweet is vague and is basically just clickbait. They have 280 characters to mentioned what they finally corrected after six weeks but decided not to. Gee, I wonder why.
Well done Jeff Bezos and the Washington Post. you finally owned did CNN in fake news! That’s truly impressive. You deserve a medal.
