The guardian reports on a sobering event in Washington DC.

US police have arrested a man wielding an assault rifle who entered a pizza restaurant that was the target of fake news reports it was operating a child abuse ring led by Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her top campaign aide.

[...] The suspect entered the restaurant and pointed a gun at a restaurant employee, who fled and notified authorities, police said. The man then discharged the weapon inside the restaurant. There were no injuries.

[...] [Police] said the suspect during an interview with investigators revealed that he came to the establishment to "self-investigate" Pizzagate, the police statement said. Pizzagate is a baseless conspiracy, which falsely claims Clinton and her campaign chief John Podesta were running a child sex ring from the restaurant's backrooms.

    Reporters aren't the worst. Leslie Moonves, CEO of CBS, on Donald Trump: "It May Not Be Good for America, but It's Damn Good for CBS." Doesn't sound like a guy dedicated to uncovering the truth and reporting the facts. Does he even care about facts, or is he only interested in drama, only interested in what's easiest to produce and sell?

    Les, let us know how it's working out for CBS when The Donald clamps down on your business. How's it feel to be censored, muzzled, and harassed by an organized army of angry, powerful fascists? Think he can't do that? Maybe. Would he do it if he could? What do you think? You'll wish for the good old days when your harassers were a scattering of powerless loonies.

    With an attitude like that, he ought to switch to running a tabloid.

    These days it's all about the money. Nothing more.

    I doubt CBS or any other network will have any worries about entertaining the Donald. Press (ANY) is what feeds his ego.
    As long as the airways are full of his mug and mop and the praise is flowing life will be good for them all.

    One things for sure with this group, Democracy will be sucking hind tit but Capitalism will be in milk and honey land.
    Someone's going to have lots of fun with somebody else's money me'sa thinks.
