The new icon - a backwards 'B' - is for right-wing hoaxes. These can range from fraudulent letters like the Bonner & Associates forgeries to faked physical attacks to phony official documents to anything in-betwixt!
Why a backwards 'B'? Because it bips. Just joking!
You may recall an incident during the 2008 campaign in which a Republican operative carved a backwards 'B' into her own face to make it look like a politically motivated assault. Hence our symbol for a rightist hoax.
Because modern conservatism has become a fraud itself, a symbol for right-wing frauds was long overdue.
