Incorrect....
Everyone will at least pretend to believe them because a template of credibility will have been established where the accusers are all right, even if they are lying.
It's a chess move to codify communist tactics in use against outspoken people or whoever (((they))) feel must be smeared.

That template of credibility without hard proof and based on 'anonymous sources' has just been shattered. My reasoning for this statement is as follows:
In the past, true conspiracy theories almost never proven as conspiracy fact.
9/11 inside job took about 10 years to come out
This degenerate bitch that jist accused the republican of rape or whatever, disproven in 24 hrs!
MSM credibility destroyed. COMPLETELY. Along with their template.

Hmm. Well it's true that these reputation molotovs aren't always going to burn down everything, but with headlines like 'Moore refuses to deny kissing teenagers at 30', I'd say it's worth it for them to have someone 'accuse!' and would expect that maneuver will be excercised more in the future
