Today's Academy of Dung Beetles' Award is being rolled towards Britain's Telegraph newspaper which claimed that Michelle Obama spent $50,000 on lingerie at a Manhattan store, without any source [even anonymous] for the amount. The White House says the report is '100 percent false' and, in the absence of sources or explanations from the Telegraph, we have to assume this was, indeed, false.Laughing Conservative did not mention the report but, since we try to use only credible sources, we intend to delete the Telegraph from our permanent links after allowing the paper an appropriate interval to investigate and publicly explain what occurred. Telegraph report is here.
