[oldno7]

The attached spreadsheet contains 90+ anti conservative/Republican stories the major media got wrong.It includes dates, links to original or Wayback articles, Snopes and Politifact rating, etc…67 of the wrong articles come from Sharyl Atkkisson’s list, 23 are from Timothy Zebel’s book “The Fake News Epidemic”.Out of these 90 articles Snopes rated only 4 as false.Out of the 90 articles Politifact rated only 3 as false.https://teapartypac.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2019/08/snopes-politifact-fake-news.jpg

From TGP’s study, Snopes had only a 4% success rate, while they completely missed 96% of the major fake news stories surrounding reports of Trump-Russia “collusion.”

Snopes is a big part of the #FAKENEWS problem. It's hard to see the truth through liberal colored glasses.

I've pumped Jimmy Dore before. The more I see him, the more I like him, and the following video is another prime example of why. In this video he shreds Snopes for being a Democrat propaganda machine.

Who the hell would rely on "fact checkers" in this day and age, anyway? I would say most of this stuff is largely ignored...Mr. Dore acknowledges that himself.

These "articles" are just for people that have an insatiable appetite for bloody red political meat...kind of like the retired, liberal clients I have that watch CNN or MSNBC all day long...sitting in the "brainwashing holes" (that's what I call the living rooms of these people).

Pick 100 people at random and 96 of them aren't even going to know what he hell "Snopes" is.
