Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, the Republican vice presidential candidate, appeared on CBS This Morning on 14 October 2016 to respond to Michelle Obama's remarks of a day earlier, in which she condemned Donald Trump's idea of locker room banter as revealed in a recording of Trump's lewd 2005 conversation from Access Hollywood: The First Lady said Trump's 2005 boast that women let him grab them by the pussy because of his high public profile constituted sexually predatory behavior: The governor responded by asserting that he believed Trump's denial of the wave of allegations of sexual assault that had been made against him since his 2005 remarks were made public: But the Newslo fake news web site (under the Politicops.com domain), which publishes hybrid mixtures of fact and satire, published an exaggerated account of Pence's remarks that amped up the vitriol: As we have often reported, Newslo and its affiliate sites typically start an article with a small dab of actual news before embellishing it to ridiculous extremes. In this case, only the opening paragraph of the story relayed anything like real news, while the rest was fabricated. Also, the quote used in the headline (Michelle Obama Is the Most Vulgar First Lady We've Ever Had) does not actually appear in the story. Newslo has previously reported that Sen. Ted Cruz volunteered to run as a Democrat if needed, and that Sen. Marco Rubio had vowed to get rid of the Supreme CourtL, among other pieces of satire.
