Why would the only people on the Internet reporting on a supposed fake be two highly unreliable rags with a serious vendetta against CNN? Why is it that FOX News or The Chicago Tribune or one of their many competetitors didn't report on this? Because it's bullstuff. You're trying to pretend like you're keeping an open mind by denying evidence while the truth is that you're doing exactly the opposite. You are literally what you accuse Seven of being.

No medical journal will publish anything written by Andrew Wakefield because he wrote an article with falsified data in order to implicate vaccines as causing autism. The Bogdanoff Twins can't work in physics anymore because they submitted a paper that was literally just filled with pseudo-technical nonsensical jargon. And nobody trusts Brian Williams as a war reporter anymore because he lied about flying in a crashed helicopter.

Any rational person knows to ignore people who are habitual bullstuffters. You have an obligation as a writer to follow journalistic integrity, and you aren't entitled to second chances after you knowingly disregard the rules. Giving people a blank slate just because it's a new claim only guarantees that you'll be debunking their bullstuff over and over.
