On Friday April Ryan, White House reporter for American Urban Radio networks and CNN analyst, demanded President Donald Trump’s Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders provide proof she baked a pie she tweeted a photo of on Thanksgiving Day.
Huckabee Sanders posted this tweet earlier in the day.
I️ dont cook much these days, but managed this Chocolate Pecan Pie for Thanksgiving at the family farm! pic.twitter.com/rO8nFxtly7

Ryan commented late Friday morning making clear she was not joking, demanding Sanders provide proof, and included a jab at Sanders asking reporters earlier this week to state what they are thankful for,
“Show it to us on a table” and “I am not trying to be funny but folks are already saying #piegate and #fakepie Show it to us on the table with folks eating it and a pic of you cooking it. I am getting the biggest laugh out of this. I am thankful for this laugh on Black Friday!”
Reporter Victoria Nankung then took the conspiracy and ran with it.
Nankung took it a step further and accused Sanders of swiping a photo from PBS!
That’s when Gizmodo stepped in to correct the ignorant far left reporters.
The thing is, pbs.twimg.com is just a subdomain that Twitter uses to host photos. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Public Broadcasting Service. The best evidence that Sanders is the original creator of the photo? If you do a reverse image search, it’s clear that Sanders was the first person to post that image to the internet.
Namkung deleted her original tweet about PBS but still insisted that Sanders didn’t bake the pie that she posted, despite providing no evidence that it was a stock photo. Other Twitter users finally set her straight and she deleted all her tweets accusing Sanders of stealing the photo.
That’s pretty embarrassing.
And to think — These same loons are reporting their biased news to you!
