    I’d say it’s more like he “baselessly accuses” them. Saying your source is social media is about as meaningful as saying your source is your gut.

      The moderators had preemptively contacted the city manager of Springfield, Ohio. That person said it isn’t happening. Do you need more?

      He said his source was “a man on TV.”

      Not even social media. He saw “a man” on the “tv” say it, so it must be true. Did he specify what man? No. What TV show? No.

      The moderators had comments from Springfield officials, and he had a nebulous TV man.

      That’s just false, not even baseless.
