On 3 February 2018, the disreputable web site Your News Wire reported falsely that actor Denzel Washington said the election of President Donald Trump saved the United States from becoming an Orwellian police state. YourNewsWire reported: There is no evidence that Washington made this comment, though it isn't the first time he has been painted as an avid supporter of President Trump without factual support. At a red carpet event for his film Fences he responded to a question about how he voted in 2016 with none of your business. YourNewsWire is a fake news site that is notorious for making up sensational quotes and attributing them to celebrities or politicians. YourNewsWire. For example the site started a false rumor that actor Sylvester Stallone said former President Barack Obama was a closeted homosexual and claimed, again falsely, that actress Julia Roberts had said former First Lady Michelle Obama isn't fit to clean Melania Trump's toilet. YourNewsWire also regularly exploits the early hours of tragedies to spread false rumors and conspiracy theories.
