It's based on the quote he said where he said he "created stories"
"If I have to create stories so that the American media actually has to pay attention to the suffering of American people, then that’s what I’m going to do,” said Vance, a U.S. Senator representing Ohio
Yeah I watched the video. He didn’t say he fabricated the thing. He just said he would push any media story to further his goals. And then he backtracked a little. It was still slimy as fuck and he’s still an awkward little shit fucker but these misleading headlines piss me off.
I was wondering, since we got that story on Friday about the woman who admitted to starting the whole thing who was now upset and ashamed that it had gained national notoriety.
So it’s more that he took a news item he suspected was made up and ran with it anyway.
