The NY POST and the creepy UK SUN - When "Real News" becomes FAKE NEWS

Two UFC fighters, bitter enemies due to ethnic differences and name-calling, were not about to shake hands after the fight.

In fact, when Conor McGregor tapped out, there was a melee which saw him and a member of his entourage punched. The guy who won? He leaped over the cage to also try and get at a McGregor team member.

BUT...take a look at the photo.

WHY does it look like these two fighters have embraced after four rounds of fury?

In small gray letters, you might notice the word "composite."

SOMEBODY Photoshopped this image. WHAT FOR? It would be too much effort to pay for two photos? Or one photo where the fighters were in combat?

Why be FAKE NEWS and make the casual viewer think that these two guys respect each other?

WHY do that when the whole after-story of the event was how out of control everyone was after the actual fight ended?

It seems that more and more, the NY Post and the NY Daily News are borrowing copy AND tactics from sleazy UK rags like The Sun and the Daily Mail.

What happened to JOURNALISM and INTEGRITY? Donald Trump can legitimately claim that even so-called "legit" newspapers dabble in FAKE NEWS.
