Make Up Your Minds!

Like A Rug Dep't.

More fake news, we s'pose, because Reporter A only picked ten of whatever the lie* total was, & Reporter B went to 24.
 Linda Qiu / New York Times:
10 Falsehoods From Trump's Interview With The Times  —  WASHINGTON — President Trump, in an impromptu interview on Thursday with The New York Times, rattled off at least 10 false or misleading claims about the Russia investigation, wars abroad, health care, immigration and trade.  Here's an assessment.
 Glenn Kessler / Washington Post:
In a 30-minute interview, President Trump made 24 false or misleading claims  —  President Trump gave an impromptu half-hour interview with the New York Times on Dec. 28.  We combed through the transcript and here's a quick roundup of the false, misleading or dubious claims that he made, at a rate of one every 75 seconds.
Or 25.
 Daniel Dale / Toronto Star:
Donald Trump made 25 false claims in his latest New York Times interview  —  Trump made nearly one false claim per minute in the 30-minute interview in Florida on Thursday.  —  WASHINGTON—U.S. President Donald Trump sat down Thursday for a rare interview with a media outlet other than Fox News …

*Or, as the "press" like to say: "false or misleading claims", or the even harsher "false, misleading or dubious claims". Whatever.

I do like "dubious", as in "Like, totally dubious, dude."
