The Intercept steps up after catching a reporter faking data and sources

[Rayzer]

"Retracted: Dylann Roof’s Cousin Claims Love Interest Chose Black Man
Over Him"

Why would the Intercept even bother publishing shit like this? It's
National Enquirer material.

Ps. "Cari Machet" is now on my (bit)bucket list, at the server to save
riseup.net the remailing bandwidth,  thanks to her typically informative
missive. Not that trolls care if anyone actually reads what they
pathologically spew.
