infogarphs 4chan maed:


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"In a story that is getting more surreal by the minute, a post on 4Chan now claims that the infamous "golden showers" scene in the unverified 35-page dossier, allegedly compiled by a British intelligence officer, was a hoax and fabricated by a member of the chatboard as "fanfiction", then sent to Rick Wilson, who proceeded to send it to the CIA, which then put it in their official classified intelligence report on the election.

Here is 4Chan's explanation of how the story came to light:




On january 10, Buzzfeed posted a story under the byline of Ken Bensinger, Mark Schoofs and Miriam elder titled “these reports Allege Trump Has Deep Ties To Russia” and posted a link to a document alleging, among other things, that russia has been cultivating trump for 5+ years, that trump has been in constant contact with the kremlin for information on his opponents, and perhaps most inflammatory, that there are many recorded instances of blackmail of trump in sexual misconduct. A prominent claim is that trump rented the presidential suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel in moscow, where he knew that the Obamas had slept in; he them hired a number of prostitutes to perform a 'golden shower' (pissplay) on the bed and in the room. https://www.buzzfeed.com/kenbensinger/these-reports-allege-trump-has-dee...
https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3259984/Trump-Intelligence-Al...

Noted #nevertrump voice Rick Wilson later commented on twitter, stating that the report “gave a new meaning to Wikileaks” (https://twitter.com/TheRickWilson/status/818982395202379777) and that the report was the reason everybody was fighting so hard against the election of Trump. (https://twitter.com/TheRickWilson/status/818983514335047680)

The remarkable thing? It's all fake. And not only fake; it's a prank perpetuated by 4chan, on Rick Wilson himself. A post on 4chan on october 26 stated “mfw managed to convince CTR and certain (((journalists))) on Twitter there'll be an October surprise on Trump this Friday” along with a picture of a smug face with a hash name. http://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/94704894/#94705224

on november 1, a person without a picture but is assumed to be the same person posted “So they took what I told Rick Wilson and added a Russian spy angle to it. They still believe it. Guys, they're truly fucking desperate - there's no remaining Trump scandal that's credible.” https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/95568919/#95571329

on january 10, moments after the story broke and began to gain traction on social media, a person with the same smug grin face, and the same hash title for the picture, stated “I didn't think they'd take it so far.” http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/106514445#p106520376

This story has taken on something of a life of it's own. Going through Rick Wilson's twitter, you can find many different stories from the time that he had shown the story to a wide number of anti-trump news sources, trying to find a news organization that would actually publish the story. During that time period, he referred to it often as 'the thing', and often playing coy with followers on the content with the story with anybody who was not also a #Nevertrumper. Unconfirmed sources has people as high up as John McCain giving the story to FBI Director James Comey to attempt to verify the story. Given that Rick Wilson runs in Establishment circles, it is not an impossible scenario that long-serving senators are falling for what amounts to a 4chan troll trump supporter creating an ironic October Surprise out of wholecloth to punk a GOPe pundit who derogatorily referred to them as single men who masturbate to anime


While this entire incident is laughable, and even more so if the 4chan account is accurate, what makes it quite tragic, is that it is no longer possible to dismiss the "fake news" angle to an intelligence report. And if the CIA is compromised, what is left for "news outlets" like CNN and BuzzFeed, which were all too eager to run with the story without any attempt at verification?"

This is even better than when those people at Propaganda or Not got the Washington Post to claim left leaning sites are actually Russian propaganda sites. You know because they included a few sites that support their bias. Source checking! Screw that! We gotta stop Drumpf! There are two outlets in this list of hundreds that I don't like! I mean, I am not totally sure how this fitness site is Russian propaganda, but fuck it! Run the story! Front Page!

I actually,, still to this day, don't think they understand the complete irony of a Anti-Propaganda site getting a respected news outlet to run a unverified story. :3

Funny how everybody here are ganging all over buzzfeed for running an unconfirmed story...

Yet they accept the alternative story put forth by random anonymous 4chan users without question.

Still haven't seen any actual proof of this from 4chan and considering they worship Trump, I find it most unlikely they are purposely seeking to damage the reputation of the man.

Plus, the intel reports started coming in earlier than the archive so they've could've easily built a story around this.

Considering that Pentagon commissioned a top secret report which determined that Putin is autistic based entirely on video footage of him there's a chance that they did the same with this. The thing that makes this seem fake to me is that they are claiming that they got this from before November but only now they release it right before Trump becomes president and not when this could've had any affect on his run.

I haven't put much faith in the CIA either way as their reports on Saddam were so inaccurate that they thought Saddam didn't smoke when he was a huge chain-smoker.

Have you seen Trump's press conference? Damn, this makes me thing that the "4channer" is actually someone who was hired by Trump's people... I mean he would need to have a ton lot of luck to have such a convenient thing happen at such a convenient time if he/she wasn't hired by Trump. Only because this happened was Trump able to be on the offense instead of having to be entirely on the defense against repeated questions about Russia. And he a legitimate reason to call out CNN as "fake news" on live TV. It was brilliant.

CNN is REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'ing hard and trying to cover their asses over that.

"CNN’s decision to publish carefully sourced reporting about the operations of our government is vastly different than BuzzFeed’s decision to publish unsubstantiated memos. The Trump team knows this. They are using BuzzFeed’s decision to deflect from CNN’s reporting, which has been matched by the other major news organizations. We are fully confident in our reporting. It represents the core of what the First Amendment protects, informing the people of the inner workings of their government; in this case, briefing materials prepared for President Obama and President-elect Trump last week. We made it clear that we were not publishing any of the details of the 35-page document because we have not corroborated the report’s allegations. Given that members of the Trump transition team have so vocally criticized our reporting, we encourage them to identify, specifically, what they believe to be inaccurate."

In this particular case though it was all so extremely convenient that I can't help but think that Trump had his hand in this 4chan/pol fanfiction being "leaked" all the way to buzzfeed through #NeverTrump-ers (and intelligence agencies). A day before his press conference? Just in time to save him from having to be defense about endless questions about connections with the Russians?

No. I don't buy that. Trump does not seem to be the kind of man who'd rely on mere luck to win.


Of course, no one forced Buzzfeed to publish the story or for the story to be leaked all the way. So in the end Buzzfeed and CNN dug their own graves there.

I would say rather then Buzzfeed and CNN falling for it, among other fake news pieces, is the fact the CIA bought this, and included in its report against Russia in the US presidential election. Its a joint and stupid effort to delegitimized Trump.

And the media is obsessed with Russia, they need to make up their minds, either Russia is a near failure of a state, or Russia is able to manipulate populaces around the world to vote as they wish.

I can't wait to see how Russia will be blamed when Le-Pen wins in France, then becomes outlawed as; "Muh Russians."
