.
12/9/17, "“He Fights” – President Trump Calls Out Fake News Reporting of Washington Post and Dave Weigel," tcth, sundance

"In an effort to ridicule President Trump, Washington Post reporter Dave Weigel tweeted a fake news picture from last night’s MAGA rally in Pensacola Florida; obviously attempting to frame a narrative that the rally was poorly attended."...

My comment:

Dave Weigel enjoys being a global celebrity. Perhaps that's where his "talent," if any, may best be focused. In 2010 Dave Weigel was fired/forced to resign from the Washington Post for hateful comments he made about Matt Drudge, Rush Limbaugh, and conservatives in general. Weigel's statements were apparently made on the Journolist site, at the time an online mob of Deep State media cheerleaders. Some of his comments became public. Whether public or not, Weigel harbors hateful, bigoted opinions. Persons with out of control emotions shouldn't be employed at the Washington Post. There are other ways of being a global celebrity--which is what Weigel is.
