How fake is fake news? Knob Creek Kentucky Invades Syria
byVanderleunonOctober 15, 2019
Yes, it’s a turkey shoot, but it isn’t Turkey that’s doing the shooting.
On Sunday, ABC News anchor Tom Llamas also aired the allegedly shocking footage, claiming it showed a fierce Turkish attack on Kurdish civilians.
“The situation rapidly spiraling out of control in northern Syria. One week since President Trump ordered U.S. forces out of that region, effectively abandoning America’s allies in the fight against [the Islamic State].”
Llamas then described the video as it aired on-screen.
“This video right here appearing to show Turkey’s military bombing Kurdish civilians in a Syrian border town. The Kurds, who fought alongside the U.S. against ISIS. Now, horrific reports of atrocities committed by Turkish-backed fighters on those very allies.”
Similar footage from the Knob Creek Gun Range’s biannual 2017 machine gun shoot came to light on Monday after ABC News’s broadcast. The original footage showed tracer rounds being fired by automatic weapons amid explosions, as a group of people filmed the tracer rounds on their cell phones.
And here’s the correction that ABC news thought solved it’s “mistake” of leading with the shooting and the bleeding when the bleeding was ten thousand kilometers from the shooting.
“CORRECTION: We’ve taken down video that aired on “World News Tonight” Sunday and “Good Morning America” this morning that appeared to be from the Syrian border immediately after questions were raised about its accuracy,” the network tweeted. “ABC News regrets the error.”
The Knob Creek Gun Range in the town of West Point, Kentucky, hosts a twice-yearly event called the “Military Gun Shoot & Military Gun Show.” If only those tracer rounds reached to the ABC studios. Maybe next year.
Everything about it is fake. Even the news reader – he’s not a real llama.

Man, that was some serious lead tossing and the pyrotechnics were tantalizing but a couple of things gave it away….
If you stop the vid at 0:49 it’s plain to see an audience of civilians watching the show. Some probably had popcorn but usually no liquor is allowed. Most def, non-combatants sitting in seats, marveling at the event and wishing they were watching the local leftist factions getting what they deserve.
Nary a single Alluh Hackbarf was muttered during the in the entire presentation and God knows, any self respecting muslim who is slaughtering someone cannot take a breath without blurting that blessing toward the Heavens.
These MSM slobs should be sent to the front lines.

The gosling brains go on about, “What are your puny pea shooters going to do against tanks, jets, and sheen guns?”
In the near future the american patriots will be the shooters and Seattle, etc., will be down range.
Either ABC News is as credulous as a child, or they are cynical enough to figure they could get away with this. Evil and stupid should be running neck to neck. But, how many people are even going going to question it?
I’m guessing they figure there is very little downside to a lie this preposterous, and enough people will swallow it whole to make the effort worthwhile. (See coverage of DJ Trump)
Cynical wins.

Isn’t that called the Hermann Goring theory?

“Despite the online rantings of bad-faith partisans, there is no evidence that this was intentional nor ideologically-motivated. The conflict in Syria is highly newsworthy & the motivation here was almost certainly to get a sensational, great-for-TV clip,” Adams wrote in a Twitter thread. Adams added that legitimate news outlets publicly acknowledge even minor errors and correct the record, and that it’s important to remember that these types of mistakes are relatively rare.
Crowd sitting in neat rows watching, one guy getting up and probably heading for the bathroom. Was this video sitting on a shelf labeled “Syrian footage of Turkish attack proving Orange Man BAD, Check, Check, double check; is good so broadcast without checking”?
I don’t know, I have to wonder if we have a mole in place within ABC?

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
