Translation: They got caught flat out lying.
On Thursday, The Daily Beast removed an article from its website that highlighted claims that President Donald Trump met first lady Melania
Trump through Jeffrey Epstein. These claims came from Trump biographer Michael Wolff.
This editor’s note was posted on The Daily Beast’s site: “Editor’s Note. After this story was published, The Beast received a letter from
First Lady Melania Trump’s attorney challenging the headline and
framing of the article. After reviewing the matter, the Beast has
taken down the article and apologizes for any confusion or misunderstanding.”
Wolff’s original claims were made during an episode of “The Daily
Beast Podcast,” which aired six days ago.
TheWrap’s Benjamin Lindsay wrote, “In the podcast interview with
Joanna Coles, published Saturday, Wolff alleges that Donald and
Melania met in 1998 through ID Models founder Paolo Zampolli, who
himself had ties to Epstein and his partner Ghislaine Maxwell. He said
that Melania was ‘very involved’ in Epstein’s social circle.”
A spokesperson for The Daily Beast told media journalist Oliver Darcy,
“The story was deleted because it did not reflect the comments made by Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles on the Daily Beast podcast.”

What does Fox do when they get caught lying?
Maybe the fact that they were wiling to own up and apologize when they
made a MISTAKE is the reason YOUR source says:
'The Daily Beast is a superb site'

What does Fox do when they get caught lying?
Do try to stick to the topic.
I'm making a comparison...
...just the same way you like to do.
Ok what stories did Fox News put out that quoted people as saying
things that were never said?
So it has to be the exact same thing. You don't think lying about the
election being stolen counts?
I asked a very specific question. Can't you answer a simple question
without wandering around.
Sean Hannity testified that he did not believe the fraud claims "for one >>> second," even as he gave a platform to accusers to repeat them on his show.'
'Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham were shown in text messages to be
highly critical of the claims and the people making them, privately
calling them "mind-blowingly nuts."'
But directly on point:
'On Friday evening, Fox News withdrew a story it had published in which
former Trump administration Health and Human Services Secretary Tom
Price was quoted as saying he would not support the former president in
2024.
�He can kiss my big medical butt,� the story said Price had remarked.
However, the story was taken down and instead replaced with an editor�s
note.'

Good grief. It took you days of prompting before you answer the
question.
So Fox News retracted a story and was wrong too? What does that have"was wrong too"?
to do with the OT?
