Talk about taking a section of text and misrepresenting it. My statement was about representing something as fact vs. opinion and nothing else. The text you lifted "This has nothing to do with one side being right or wrong" was in reference to representing something as fact when it was really opinion. I was purposely stating that right or wrong has nothing to do with misrepresnting opinion as fact. I was not making a statement about whether the manipulations were right or wrong.
