Don't hold back, dear - tell us what you really mean!
(Actually I couldn't agree more...)
The word 'ignorant' would be inappropriate because it has too many letters for such a simpleton.

Wow, pathetic. That is some serious leaving aside. You've got to be a real brute and ignorant and... yeah, dickhead. I'm totally with you in this one, elophile . You'll probably want your best flamethrower for this occasion, but if you lend me one of the others I'll put the helmet on and gladly second you.

Gives a whole new meaning to "fake news"; now we have "so-dumb-they-don't-even-know-it's-fake-news" news!
Talk about 'hoisted on their own petard'.

How hard would it have been for this blowhard to do a bit of research?
Some of the most egregious errors:
On the birth of the Wilbury's: As Harrison dashed off a song, he got an idea: “I thought, ‘I’m not gonna just sing it myself, I’ve got Roy Orbison standing there — I’m gonna write a bit for Roy to sing.’ And then as it progressed, I thought I might as well push it a bit and get Tom and Bob to sing the bridge."
Where is Jeff?
From Wikipedia: Starting with a meal shared by Harrison, Lynne and Roy Orbison...
From George:

A band with four acoustic guitarists — with four superstar guitarists who had no urgent need to be in a band?uh, four? From Wikipedia again: Line-ups Volume 1 "Nelson Wilbury" – George Harrison "Otis Wilbury" – Jeff Lynne"Lefty Wilbury" – Roy Orbison "Charlie T. Wilbury, Jr." – Tom Petty "Lucky Wilbury" – Bob Dylan I count five!

The origin of the band’s name is lost in a fog of joints and beer, but it seems to have something to do with the idea of mistakes being fixed later, as “We’ll bury it in the mix.”
No, the origin of the name isn't lost. From Wikipedia again:
"Wilbury" was a slang term first used by Harrison during the recording of Cloud Nine with Jeff Lynne. Referring to recording errors created by some faulty equipment, Harrison jokingly remarked to Lynne, "We'll bury 'em in the mix".[2][3] Thereafter, they used the term for any small error in performance and the term was used again when the group were together. Harrison suggested "The Trembling Wilburys" as the group's name; instead, Lynne suggested "Traveling", with which the group agreed.

George Harrison. Bob Dylan. Roy Orbison… and Tom Petty. Second from the left. It's spelled "J-E-F-F L-Y-N-N-E" not "..."

I hope JL is overlooked by this bloke, too: Yes, yes. Of course! I do wish you'd stop this morbid line of thinking when it comes to our dear Jeff. Jeff is going to live forever! He's got to!

A band with four acoustic guitarists — with four superstar guitarists who had no urgent need to be in a band?uh, four? Also, superstar guitarists? What? The only one there you could call so -and it would also be very debatable- is George Harrison. What these guys were is great songwriters, and a great singer in the case of Roy Orbison, but definitely not superstar guitarists.
