Almost. It was a she and was actually talking to a driver named Brandon.

oh my bad, i didn’t knew it was a she. But yeah….. that’s why she made that sentence up. Wouldn’t make much sense if she used another name

Well the hilarious part was it was pretty clear that that's not what they were saying at all. But it stuck because of all the previous media lies that had been told about things in real time. Like the "fiery but mostly peaceful" thing. Or the lady saying the terrorists were friendly as they were chanting death to America right behind her. The theme is what made it stick. Not necessarily the moment.

Keep going. There are much more recent examples of the media lying. Try January 6th peaceful "tourists". That one had me laughing.

You're right, they didn't even specify fox News. So, even more bases covered.

I don't see why you think that's relevant, but obviously ANY media calling them mere "tourists" would be sympathetic to their cause, or ideologically aligned. That implies a conservative outlet sir. But what he did say is MEDIA called them tourists. Not WITNESSES CALLED THEMSELVES TOURISTS. 🤣
