1. There is no such thing as a "false rumor." The word for that is a HOAX. 2. The headline misses the entire point of the hoax, which is not that he was in Ohio, but that he was in a mental health facility! are there any adults left at the new york times

Obv., as Rep. Talarico affirns, the notion that he was in a psychiatric hospital is “the craziest thing I’ve ever heard” [ www.ms.now/news/james-t.... & it becomes increasingly obvious that the ones in need of some psychiatric attention are those who promote such asinine/insane/poisonous rhetoric.

ms.now‘Silly season’: James Talarico tackles GOP conspiracies on his flu absenceThe Democratic Senate nominee told MS NOW he is fine and demanded “proof of spine” from GOP rival Ken Paxton.

It's stupid, but Talerico's campaign should've kept public updated. Just make an ad with Talerico propped up in bed; looking like shit; surrounded by medicine + tissue boxes; eating a spicy bowl of menudo; and talking about healthcare.
