POSTED ON JANUARY 18, 2020 BY BOB THE EMPIRE NEWS POTATO
Former President Barack Obama announced late last night that he had filed for divorce from his wife of 27 years, Michelle Obama,
The news is false. The about section of the website, where the article was published, declares, “Empire News is intended for entertainment purposes only. Our website and social media content uses only fictional names, except in cases of public figure and celebrity parody or satirization. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental.” Their writings are fictional.
Hence, the article about Barack Obama and Michelle Obama getting a divorce is a work of fiction.
