FACT CHECK: Cheektowaga Bee / Nowak Mailer ARE NOT the Same Photo

When their support of the Confederate flag and failed attempts to censure Cheektowaga Town Councilmember Brian Nowak spectacularly blew up in their face, a Facebook group of tinfoil hat-wearing morons have been purposely spreading fake, made-up disinformation in a desperate attempt to discredit and smear Democratic candidate for Town Supervisor Nowak.

Since the morons moderating a Cheektowaga face group are too pussified to defend their own crazy conspiratorial ideas on their own platform, they’ve been trying to spread their nonsense to other people’s social media posts and pages.

Whatever bulls**t they can make up in an attempt to sway support to their flailing candidate Michael Jasinski, they will.

THE CLAIM:

Thee accusation is that Cheektowaga Supervisor candidate Brian Nowak “stole” a picture for a recent campaign mailer from the Cheektowaga Bee and then purposely cropped Mark Poloncarz out of the picture.

Even though you can’t see a badge or emblem on any police official in the picture, somehow it’s some sort of campaign violation because they know that the person in the picture is Cheektowaga police chief,  that somehow him shoveling dirt somehow equates to an endorsement.

THE FACTS:

They can’t seem to get it out from under their tinfoil hats, that the pictures used are completely different photos of the same event. Yet they continue to spam post it anywhere they think a fellow Republican moron might notice.

Here’s the picture used in the Bee article:

And here’s the picture used in the mailer:

Anyone with a functioning brain can see the difference between the two pictures.

The angles of the shovels, the dirt, the head positions, and the angle the photo was taken are obviously not even close to being the same picture.

Official Amount of Bullshit:
