The national outrage that simmered after actor Jussie Smollett said he was attacked by people shouting racial and anti-gay slurs was fueled in part by celebrities who spoke out loud and strong on social media.
The "Narrative" only seemed "Cut-and-dry" to people who were looking at the case through lenses clouded by their anti-Trump bias.
It seemed made up to those of us who noticed that Smollett's allegations were outlandish, implausible, and riddled with inconsistencies from the get-go.
Even as his story started falling apart, the national media clung to their precious narrative.
There's been much commentary in the past few days about the MSM's lack of critical thinking skills in covering not only the Jussie Smollett "Hate crime" fairy tale, but a number of other bogus stories as well.
By the time the story is proven to be a hoax, the media has already moved on to the next manufactured outrage.
People still expressed shock and surprise when it became obvious that Smollett had staged his own hate crime.
