  • Anyone who could make this news break would be in a position to steal unfathomable amounts of money in broad daylight, and get away with it.

    They’d also have to be in a position to lose a ridiculous amount of of money in the extremely likely case that no one looks twice at their completely unsupported Tweet.

    Should we look at it? Absolutely. Do I see any evidence? No. Literally anyone could have tweeted the same thing. The far more likely scenario, in my eyes, is that these news orgs saw this Tweet picking up traction from a bunch of idiots and couldn’t take the risk of being the last one to report the “news”, and so went ahead and reported completely unfounded non-sense anyway.
