HOAX ABOUT FLORIDA SHOOTER BEING A 'WHITE SUPRAMIST' BEGAN ON 4CHAN

The day after Nikolas Cruz was arrested for opening fire at a Florida high school, killing 17 people, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) claimed in a headline "Florida White Supremacist Group Admits Ties to Alleged Parkland School Shooter Nikolas Cruz," in article that has since been updated to reflect how they were conned into helping to start the fake news story, after the AP, ABC News and others had already used their initial false and manufactured claim to push the false narrative into the minds of millions as it spread across the internet and into many MSM publications.

Via Politico:

The ADL quoted a man named Jordan Jereb, who runs the small group, which is based in Tallahassee.
“Jereb added that ROF had not ordered or wanted Cruz to do anything like the school shooting,” the ADL wrote in a blog post that was quickly picked up by ABC News and The Associated Press, and later percolated through dozens of other media outlets. Even The Daily Stormer, a neo-Nazi website, picked up the claim.
