  • On 29 November 2016, the web site The Resistance: The Last Line of Defense published an article that appeared to report that President Obama's plans to attend Fidel Castro's funeral were quashed by Donald Trump: The site employed a common fake news tactic in linking to the Associated Press web site, not a specific article. Not only did no such article exist on the Associated Press web site or of any other credible news source, but The Resistance's disclaimer described its content as total baloney: TheLastLineOfDefense.org only publishes hoax stories that are calculated for maximal outrage clicks and shares. Other hoaxes that have emerged from this particular web site included claims that Beyoncé stormed offstage after Hillary Clinton hurled racial epithets at her, that vans full of undocumented people were driven from polling place to polling place to vote over and over again, and that Lady Gaga was arrested for negative tweets about Melania Trump.
