Beyond that, the fact that a rarity happened here -- not that the Pentagon lied but that it got caught lying -- is almost secondary. The point is that this media practice -- of publishing US Govt claims about who they killed with drone strikes *with zero skepticism* -- is common. https://t.co/oWlXGvNF2U — PolitiTweet.org

Second, until the NYT's report 2 weeks later, media repeatedly and unquestioningly spread the Biden Admin's false story that the drone strike killed ISIS terrorists headed to the airport with bombs, and that this caused "secondary explosions." This dominated news for 2 weeks: https://t.co/BREf8GH74v — PolitiTweet.org

In the two weeks after the Aug. 29 drone strike, so many journalists endorsed the Biden WH's claim that they killed ISIS terrorist, even though there was *zero evidence* for it. You can watch them here. What happened to the Trump-era skepticism of pointing out "no evidence"?? https://t.co/LhHWRwyACr — PolitiTweet.org
