As we noted, WorldNetDaily’s Joseph Farah appeared on the April 22 edition of Fox Business’ “America’s Nightly Scoreboard.” He seems to have bound himself in another lie.
When host David Asman asked Farah if he has talked with Donald Trump and advising him on birther issues, Farah responded, “No, I have never talked to Donald Trump in my life, though I’d be happy to anytime he would like.”
That seems to contradict what Politico reported on April 14, that Farah told the publication that he “has been on the phone with Donald Trump every day this week.”
So who got it wrong? Did Politico misinterpret what Farah said, or is Farah telling two different stories depending on who his audience is? The latter is not out of the question, especially given Farah’s blatant lie about WND never reporting that Obama has spent $2 million on birther lawsuits (when Farah himself made that exact claim).
That’s the kind of shadiness Farah and WND have employed throughout its birther coverage. That makes it difficult for anyone to treat WND as a serious news organization, especially on birther stuff.
