Newsrooms actually call out Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren for lying about Michael Brown’s death

"On the other hand, I think Kessler’s liberal bias comes into play when he applies his “Pinocchio Test.” It seems to me that he’s more inclined to award lots of Pinocchios to conservatives who have misstated things than to liberals who have done so to a comparable degree.

"Not be outdone, Warren tweeted this, half an hour later:

Brown was murdered by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri. . . .
