WHOOPS! Newsmax Reports Drone Strike In Moscow With Images From Iowa Building Collapse

Newsmax was way off in its coverage of a drone strike in Moscow ― by about 5,000 miles. On Tuesday, the far-right channel displayed images of the apartment collapse in Davenport, Iowa, as host Greta Van Susteren told of the “disturbing” attack in the Russian capital.

One clue for viewers that something might be amiss was the English “Tow Away Zone” sign in one of the photos, Mediaite noted.

Photos of the Iowa collapse were dramatic, while footage of the attack in Moscow, which Newsmax also included, wasn’t as compelling.

Newsmax didn’t immediately answer HuffPost’s request for comment.
