Okay, enough with the fake news stories in GD. We'd like to have some credibility.

What's next? People posting about how Adam Lanza didn't use a semi-automatic rifle at Sandy Hook?
Seriously folks.
And he follows up with this piece of No Shitte Sherlock.

19. People post satire without labeling it.....
....assuming that other people will get the joke. But not everyone is that sharp. And it's an innocent mistake.
They're making it way to easy to find their stupidity. It used to be that you had to comb through pages of posts to find the gems of their MOONBATTERY, now it's pretty much all in one convenient location.

Okay, I'm disappointed.
I was hoping the primitive was talking about fake news stories from truthout, rawstory, whatnot.
But he was only talking about satire.

Actually the post he was complaining about was made up out of whole cloth.
However the idea that the DUmp has any credibility in the 1st place is simply.... well, incredible.

Oh I don't think you have to worry about fake news ruining the credibility of DU.
DU has never had any credibility to begin with.

No! I object, Tommy! It's hilarious when the DUmbasses mistake satire for the real thing. You'd be robbing us of valuable entertainment, and that's just not fair.
