It seems conservatives still have Cleveland on the brain.
Breitbart News posted a photo Wednesday alongside an article headlined "Trump's Jacksonville Rally Draws 15,000" that actually showed a crowd during a celebratory parade for the Cleveland Cavaliers winning the NBA finals this year.
Washington Examiner reporter T. Becket Adams pointed out on Twitter that the photo was a cropped version of one published by CNN following the Cavaliers' victory parade in June:

Breitbart has since switched the photo out of the article for one of Trump walking onto the stage at the Florida rally and appended this clarification: "UPDATE: A photograph that was incorrectly attributed on social media to the rally in Jacksonville has been removed."

No?
Oh, and Breitbart did it twice in a couple days.
Yesterday there was a todo about the media "lying" about how few people showed up at Clinton's speech in Oklahoma. I shared a video and story from the local news showing all the people lined up outside to get in and it was deleted.

All the people who use it as a source for their opinions and proof for their positions sadly.

I think you are mistaken. The people who really know what the site is don't care. And the people that actually swallow the bull shit they push won't care that they lie.

Oh I know you're right...but too many people believe it. I always hope one will open their eyes.

Good luck with that site...it's a hell hole.
They issued a "correction" at the bottom of the article.

in breitbart's defense, it ain't often you get to use a photo of happy people in Cleveland.
but, yeah. I think most people realize it's just right leaning propaganda telling people what they want to hear. Like fox, its infotainment.

This is bad...Not nearly as bad as NBC editing Zimmerman video but somewhat close.
