#5 The Washington Post correction:

Correction: Two months after publication of this story, the Georgia secretary of state released an audio recording of President Donald Trump’s December phone call with the state’s top elections investigator. The recording revealed that The Post misquoted Trump’s comments on the call, based on information provided by a source. Trump did not tell the investigator to “find the fraud” or say she would be “a national hero” if she did so. Instead, Trump urged the investigator to scrutinize ballots in Fulton County, Ga., asserting she would find “dishonesty” there. He also told her that she had “the most important job in the country right now.” A story about the recording can be found here. The headline and text of this story have been corrected to remove quotes misattributed to Trump.

#6 "quotes misattributed"

So you guys mean to say they were accurate quotes; it's just that someone other than Trump said them?

Really? Who uttered these "quotes"?

Tell the truth for once: you just pulled those "quotes" out of your ass. Total fabrication. F---ing liars.

#7 And other news sources confirmed with their own anonymous sources.

Basically anonymous means to good to double-check.
