  • On 31 October 2017, the disreputable web site Freedum Junkshun published a fake news article claiming that two of Hillary Clinton's employees were arrested for destroying evidence related to a probe launched by House Republicans in response to several Trump allegations: There are a number of ways to tell that this story is a work of fiction. For one, the Breitbart article cited by Freedum Junkshun does not exist. The web site linked to Breitbart's home page, not a specific article, and our search for news about the arrest of Jon Crawford and Elizabeth Palmer on Breitbart came up empty handed.
