They get this nugget every so often in circulation. This time around, they nabbed CNN, Proceso and Reforma.

They can write better than these guys. These are part of a very large fear cottage industry. Just alerting you.

For the record, I saw it on my FB feed, since I do follow (and subscribe) to Proceso. After the laughter was over, I passed on even running a debunking story of this crap. Another publication did though, but in my mind that was giving them far more credit than necessary.

The story you posted has way too many red flags. The biggest is the photo of the ID. I go to pressers regularly, and I have yet to see a PIO pulling that stunt. If they were CIA, like for real, you would not hear of it. And for the record, we have had the CIA trafficking drugs in South East LA.

The reporter who went there, his career was destroyed and 20 years later we are finding out he was correct.
