Our stupid MSM!

Think about this for a moment.

Some random lady claims she won the Mega Millions lottery and she suddenly becomes an overnight sensation via the MSM.

All she had to do is say she won.---it was that easy.

The announcement ended a two-week mystery following the record-breaking, $656 million drawing on March 30. It was known the next morning that one of three winning tickets was purchased at a Baltimore-area 7-Eleven, and a McDonald's worker stepped forward claiming to have it. Mirlande Wilson, a Haitian single mom of seven, went as far as alienating her co-workers by claiming she bought it separately from tickets she purchased for a pool of 15 co-workers and even held a press conference at her lawyer's office.

As her co-workers fumed about being cut out of a jackpot they were never really in on, Wilson told the New York Post she'd hidden the ticket somewhere in the restaurant.

"We believe it to be a legitimate claim," attorney Edward Smith told a packed press conference at his law office last week. "When it is time to present the ticket or whatever it is that needs to be presented to the lottery commissioner, I am sure that we will be there."

But it was all a fabrication, and it is not clear why Wilson went public with her phony tale. Calls to Smith's office on Tuesday seeking comment were not immediately returned.
