Daily Caller  "Journalists can’t seem to get their stories straight in the opening weeks of the Trump administration, whether in tweets or in articles where falsehoods have been spread almost daily.


"The mistakes have not just been from newer liberal news outlets such The Huffington Post or BuzzFeed, but from legacy media like Reuters, The Washington Post, and The New York Times.
"What follows are several botched stories or conflicting reports since President Trump took office."  Excerpts below:
  • "The Trump administration eases sanctions on a Russian intelligence agency.
  • "The Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice were blindsided by Trump’s executive order on immigration and refugees.
  • "Steve Bannon went to visit Secretary of Homeland Security John Kelly to convince him to temporarily ban certain green card holders.
  • "The Trump administration forces the resignations of several senior Secret Service officials.  "Secret Service spokeswoman told The Daily Caller that Clemons’ reporting is “completely false.' ” 
  • The Associated Press and CNN can’t agree whether Trump threatened to send troops into Mexico. 
  • Reuters screws up the timing of Trump’s executive order.
