  • On 8 April 2016, The Marshall Report published a story reporting that Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz was married to his third cousin: This just gets weirder and weirder…..Ted Cruz is married to his third cousin and his state apparently said that was legal? Oh my head hurts. What happened to his narrative that he met Heidi while working on the Bush campaign? Did he know she was his third cousin then? The Marshall Report is a blog that traffics in sensational (and often false) news items. While The Marshall Report is not explicitly a fake news web site, this blog frequently uses "satirical" and fake clickbait articles as the basis for its reports. In this instance, The Marshall Report pointed to an article published on 14 May 2015 on the fake news web site World News Daily Report as its sole piece of evidence: Republican presidential runner Ted Cruz has stemmed controversy within Gay rights groups after a statement this week on a radio show that he is “against gay marriage” but “is married to his own cousin”. The Republican presidential runner admitted his use of words was “improper” and “lead to faulty conclusions”. “I just want to be clear on one thing: my wife is not my first cousin, she is my third cousin by alliance, which is completely different and legal in most states” he told reporters, visibly flustered by the latest accusations. The World News Daily Report states in its disclaimer that its articles are fictional: WNDR assumes however all responsibility for the satirical nature of its articles and for the fictional nature of their content. All characters appearing in the articles in this website – even those based on real people – are entirely fictional and any resemblance between them and any persons, living, dead, or undead is purely a miracle. World News Daily Report has also reported (among other things) that a Smithsonian employee was arrested for sex with a mummy, a 101-year-old woman gave birth, a lottery winner died after gold-plating his genitals, and that a babysitter ate a toddler when she was high on crystal meth.
