        It's "on" journalists to verify the authenticity of things before blasting them out on social media.

        Why point this out? Because if journalists don't want to be accused of peddling "fake news" they shouldn't credulously spread fake images.

        I love the people pointing out to you "but it's his avatar!" like that somehow excuses lazy journalists from doing a poor job at researching

        Yeah which doesn't detract from the fact that it's a photoshopped image presented as authentic

        I love when people equate "picking a battle" with sending one tweet. Journalists complain about "fake news" accusations, then spread fakery.

        It's photoshopped. It's been shown to be such. He has not removed the tweet. In fact he has retweeted it.
