As for that account having reported things accurately before, that's an old social media trick. You pass along every baseless rumor you hear, most of them are nothing, but then you trumpet the small handful you happen to hit on. And you can supposedly beat national reporters to the punch because you don't lose anything if you get it wrong, you have no real skin in the game. (regurgitate everything while real reporters are busy triangulating and fact checking). This is what Florio used to do, I believe, and how he became a national sports media figure.
I'd like a list of national reporters, sports or otherwise, who lost anything by reporting their own personal fantasies as The Truth. Disney owns major segments of the sports and national news media. The same people who jealously guard Cinderella control what we are supposed to believe is The Truth. Life is much better if you turn it all off.
