https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/new-york-times-falls-for-bizarre-trump-conspiracy-theory-quietly-scrubs-from-siteThe New York Times initially gave credence to the dumb conspiracy theory that Trump's message to seniors was filmed on green screen instead of the white house lawn
which 1) was obviously not true if you have even the slightest idea how camera lenses work and 2) had no conceivable motive since it would be easier to film on the lawn than on greenscreen and 3) was seen by many witnesses on the lawn

In the video, Mr. Trump was shown on the South Lawn of the White House hundreds of feet away from the mansion, but it appeared to be a digital backdrop as leaves blowing in the wind behind him could be seen repeating on a loop. Judd Deere, a White House spokesman, insisted that ‘he was definitely outside.’ Mr. Trump has not appeared before news cameras since his return from Walter Reed on Monday evening.
the new york times then silently scrubbed the paragraph supporting the conspiracy theory from their article without posting any editors note or retraction
Truly, this is the quality journalism that liberals hold in such high esteem
