hoax, which it was. What did CNN, NPR, and New York Times report? They reported the hoax as true. Right now, I don't think they all used the word bleach. CNN did. They may have said injecting disinfectants, which is the same story. They just don't use the word bleach. All right. How about, do I really need to go down the list? I don't need to go down the list anymore, right? What was the last fak…

And I thought, ah, this isn't really the topic I can add anything to because, you know, maybe it's hard to tell where do you draw that line between editorial decisions and being a good citizen, which is getting rid of stuff that could be damaging, right?
I thought it's a little unclear. It's not unclear. Now, did you see what they did?
