I looked at it with skepticism and checked if other sites were reporting it, and I came up with nothing. At that point, I just played the waiting game and nothing has really been said about as far as I know.

I didn't check what CNN had to say on it but I believe they were reporting on it as well. How did you come up with nothing?

That is in no way their motivation for doing that. It's all about the money. There were companies in eastern Europe making stupid amount of money publishing fake stories during the election cycle and I'm sure they aren't going to stop any time soon. Why would they?
