Journalism's latest evergreen story: "Trump says deal is close to end Iran war" -- and headlines like these run routinely, and almost never do news outlets bother to mention that he's said this again and again and it's never been true. At least not yet.Big Journalism genuinely doesn't get it.

@dangillmor More likely, they don’t care. The important thing is does the headline get clicks.

@dangillmor My feeling is that you can safely disregard anything after "Trump says".

@dangillmor I'm a simple man. I just want to see running totals of how many times he's said things next to the headline. At the very _least_, it should be in the second sentence of the article. "... deal is close to end Iran war. This is the 47th time Trump has made this claim."
