Kind of sad on Washington Post that they felt the need to post a story about this. Seems every 10th story these days has updates that change it in some way or it becomes redacted, and here they are posting a story about catching someone trying to make fake news.

It just screams petty. Like "oh look at us, we do, do our research and investigate and don't just post quick stories without validating them"

Hell they even mention in this article bragging about how good they are at research. A big new company like this should not have to defend itself or write stories about stuff like this. This should be obvious things going on behind the scenes.

Narcissism seems to be contagious and when you have the ultimate self loving person at the top then it apparently trickles down to the rest of us.  Might be the only time trickle down effect has worked in real life.
