The Huffington Post will add a note to all Trump coverage calling him a 'serial liar,' 'racist'
Readers of Donald Trump coverage in The Huffington Post are going to find themselves becoming familiar with an editorial note the website is now appending to all their coverage of the Republican front-runner.
"Note to our readers: Donald Trump is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, birther, and bully who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.," the note says. It first appeared Wednesday night on an article about Trump's feud with Fox News, Politico reports.
