        @yashar it's still ridiculous- they both behaved for a photo op and then chucked the rest of the food at the fish...

        You freaking people. You’re reporters, it seems to me you get most things wrong. Certainly you are not trustworthy.

        A mistake is not the same a a lie. Lies are intended to deceive, mistakes are unintentional. Intention matters. Do not equate the two.

        Agreed. Left can't get caught up in same trolling hysterias, or backlash is fuel. But hard for ppl to resist falling for dark side (bias)

        As the world gets more complicated people rely on their confirmation bias more to preserve their egos.
