January 18, 2018Newsweek quoted something …”surprising” that Eric Trump said:
“My dad’s not racist! He only cares about money,” Eric Trump says as he defends his father on Fox News https://t.co/4YE6xbgkCB pic.twitter.com/KT3e7wDLXr

Ok… so that’s definitely an odd choice of words… but…
It’s in quotes…. which means he SAID it. VERBATIM. They are QUOTING HIM…Right?
WRONG. THAT’S NOT WHAT HE SAID AT ALL.
Is this quote accurate? (Answer: No.) There are quotation marks around it. Not a surprise from Newsweek, but @loisromano of Harvard, WP, Politico, why would you retweet?

What he ACTUALLY said is:
“My father sees one color—green. That is all he cares about. He cares about the economy. He does not see race. He is the least racist person I ever met in my entire life.”
ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?!
This is beyond messed up.
You know quotation marks are used for actual quotes, right? https://t.co/Poyv3L3QDs

And still these liberal outlets have the gall to cry about Trump’s “attacks on the media.”
Maybe if you didn’t post all out BULLCRAP, he wouldn’t have to fight back? I mean… this is FLAGRANT. If people at Newsweek don’t understand that quotation marks go around QUOTES then they’re not just hacks… they’re really ignorant ones.
You see?
This is what we are talking about with #FakeNews
This was NOT what was said. You DELIBERATELY Misquoted this.
You NEED to retract this and FIX IT. Its a LIE
He said “The only COLOR my father see’s is Green”- In regards to race.

Too late, Newsweek. The nominations for the Fake-News Awards closed last weekend, so your current submission was rejected. Please try again next year.https://t.co/vSqKKqCCep

Seriously. How DARE they complain that no one trusts the media anymore.
They’ve done this entirely to themselves.
