Exactly but its their choice to write this article and they present no evidence the accusations have been debunked.

At best Its a weak attempt to defend the place, at worst its an example of a real news story that is being called fake to suppress opposition. Which is IMO what this whole fake news thing is really about.

The NYTimes reports facts, which are reality.

Conspiracy websites, 4chan, Reddit and Twitter detectives are not in fact based in reality when it comes to this story.
