  This list contains a few: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitbart_News#Notable_events https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breitbart_News#Notable_events (Not all of those items are made up by Breitbart, but some, like the NC wildfires, are.)

    I see controversy, but not many of those include anything fake.

      HN says that I should assume good faith, so please reread the list again - it must have slipped your notice the first time around.
