One of the side stories of the idiotic National Enquirer smear against Ted Cruz is how everyone is rushing to say that a Washington Times reporter confirmed the story. That’s because of this guy and what he said:

I have respect for the @WashTimes, so IDK why they would disassociate from me via Twitter (no email/call) for saying a scandal may be true. — Drew Johnson (@Drews_Views) March 26, 2016

Yeah he’s been fired.

Apparently they didn’t like his misrepresenting what his employment was at their site:

Drew Johnson @Drews_Views is NOT a columnist @WashTimes. (1/3) — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) March 25, 2016

He is a former employee who occasionally wrote for our "citizen-journalist" portal known as Communities. (2/3) — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) March 25, 2016

That relationship has ended as of today. (3/3) — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) March 25, 2016







Dang.

Drew Johnson's @Drews_Views personal views do not reflect those of the @WashTimes. — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) March 25, 2016

So all you idiots who are rushing to say that the Washington Times “confirmed” the story are WRONG. Not only did they not, but the guy who is being misrepresented as their reporter was fired as a content provider over it.

But that won’t stop the slobbering Trump-gobbling morons from repeating the lie:

Two of the women have been confirmed by a Washington Times reporter. #CruzSexScandal https://t.co/Avgrn5j2OT — Gary (@BlueWaterDays) March 26, 2016

Meanwhile, the Washington Times elaborated even further on the issue:

Drew Johnson parted from @WashTimes over a year ago. We take umbrage with him linking to an old bio page claiming to represent us. — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) March 26, 2016

To all who point out the Internet is forever, we get it. Hence Drew was able to perpetuate his employment when it ended long ago. — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) March 26, 2016

So yet another Trump-supporter lie falls apart, but they’ll keep repeating it like brainless zombies:

Don’t even attempt to explain to this idiot that this does not fall under “Freedom of the Press” – these troglodytes are absolutely resistant to logic, reasoning and reality.
