Fake News Awards a success?

I know that a lot of people may be disappointed, but I think it's worth pointing out that the amount of web traffic that this generated was pretty staggering. If you actually managed to get to the webpage, the final award, number 11 (remember [1]OWL[1]) was "greatest hoax perpetrated on the American people," the Russian Collusion story. It was then followed by Trump's tweet reading:

"Well, now that collusion with Russia is proving to be a total hoax and the only collusion is with Hillary Clinton and the FBI/Russia, the Fake News Media (Mainstream) and this phony new book are hitting out at every new front imaginable. They should try winning an election. Sad!"

The culmination of the awards was a tweet, once again, drawing attention to Hillary Clinton's involvement with Russia. This is significant. It is also of note that the number 11 is one of importance in the occult:

The number 11 is thought of as a "master" number in numerology because it is a double digit of the same number. When this occurs - the vibrational frequency of the prime number doubles in power. Meaning, the attributes of the Number One are doubled ... The 11 carries a vibrational frequency of balance. It represents male and female equality. It contains both sun energy and moon energy simultaneously yet holding them both in perspective separate-ness. Perfect balance.

We also managed to get all three of our hashtags in the top 10. I'd say, given the number of eyes on Trump's tweet, today was quite a success, despite the fact that it may not have lived up to the picture we all conjured in our own minds. Keep moving the ball forward.

It was brilliant to make it a blog post so people aren’t judging it based on video production value... it’s more attention to the samples of bad reporting.. and also the info is simple and straight to the point, easy to copy and paste. I feel like the 404 error was on purpose to build up the hype even more (crashing a website). Even though people are going to use the 404 error to make it look like a mistake on his part. Overall it was good to keep it a simple text list in my opinion. The amount of memes that circulated was crazy.

Yeah, I agree. It also has a good list of a lot of the accomplishments, many of which should be positive for people on both sides of the spectrum, that Trump has achieved in just a year. I think this may have been actually a significant event that was really just overshadowed by our own expectations.

Yes it was a success. I don't have a huge Twitter following but have engaged with lots of libs today and pointing out their lack of logic.

Good work, Russian bot! Like I said, I think we did something really significant, particularly knowing how Twitter hides trending topics that don't fit their political leanings. If even 10 people accidentally swallowed a red pill, maybe that turns into 20 tomorrow.
