Did Project Veritas Just Uncover a Putin & Ned Conspiracy on Steemit?

^{Artist rendition of alleged meeting.}

The Mountebank News Agency is reporting that Project Veritas may or may not have a video showing a secret meeting between current President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, and Steemit CEO Ned Scott that may have taken place.

It is alleged that at this meeting the two discussed the removal of Dan Larimer. When questioned about the allegations, Russian Diplomat to Steemit Imanotov Rhealspokovich had this to say.

"Although the allegations sound completely believable, I can assure you, with the utmost certainty available to me as a Russian diplomat, that this meeting, never, happened."

^{Not Imanotov Rhealspokovich.}

With the look of a killer after his prey, Mr. Rhealspokovich left us with one parting note.

"These conspiracies you American's have of the Great Vladimir Putin, conspiring with the likes of this little Ned to remove the bytemaster and drive the price of the STEEM's down so they can force everyone else out, and buy up all the cheap a STEEM's... you are making me a laugh."

I wanted to break this here first, on Steemit, because I know how us Steemians love some good gossip, especially when it's about Steemit, and it's posted on Steemit! I mean like, where else would you post stuff about Steemit, on other websites?

Lol, crazy talk.

Anywho, like all good news agencies, in an effort to milk this scandal for as much as it's worth, Montebank News tells me that further updates will be available throughout the day.

So, tune back in, I guess.

^{All images are completely fake. Ned Scott has never met with Vladimir Putin as far as any of us know, but you never know. I mean like, it could happen and stuff. This is probably 100% fake news.}
