8. But the source is not credible...

...this "newspaper" The Post--is about as reliable as a supermarket tabloid newspaper.

I don't think anyone, in their right mind, would assume that this story is fact. They often
write inaccurate, lie-based tripe.

And a paper like this--that has no problem pedaling lies--would employ people who would
have no problem planting a negative story like this--to further discredit the victim.

This is the NYPD commissioner's son who was accused of rape. The commissioner is
an influential person, and all it would take is one phone call to The Post, to get such
a story printed. We can't trust this paper.

Notice that there are no reputable media sources with this same story?
