A few observations:
This source is atrocious. It's below "ranty op-ed" level of quality.
Title is inaccurate, McInnes has not "admitted" to anything, and it is a damn way from certain that there was any "hoax" beyond that invented by this..."publication."
Shitty maybe, sneaky probably, but a hoax? McInnes never said he was arrested. The sum total of events is that there was an incident during his podcast, for whatever reason he ducked out during it and didn't return. Then the press went nuts speculating that he might be in Federal custody. I'm not seeing any evidence that McInnes and his organization invented this rumor, or even had anything to do with spreading it.
At present, it looks like the worst he did was let people speculate on what happened without disavowing them of the conclusions they had jumped to.
Also, for crissakes, actually look at the "article." Why would you even re-post anything from these people?
Good job.
