Clinton Foundation Witness Found Dead

Several years ago, when the dot-com rage was in full force, it was revealed that Snopes and Wikipedia had a strong liberal bias


Revealed by who? Revealed how?

Quote

Christian conservatives were advised to consult Truth or Fiction or Conservapedia as alternative sources.


Because they are happy to blatantly lie in support of their declared Conservative bias. Good to hear you announce that you support fake news.

Quote

However, we later learned that George Soros was a major funding source.


How did you learn George Soros is a major funding source of Snopes? From who did you learn it? Why do you trust it?
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

This, of course, is total nonsense.

Snopes has no "liberal bias", indeed, most of its content has nothing to do with politics. However, when it became a common source for torpedoing those stupid chain emails from your racist uncle (or weirdos on dropzone.com), it's only natural that conservatives had to start spreading rumours about it.

Snopes, like all fact checking cites, works by showing its work. It doesn't just debunk something, it provides you all of the information in supporting the debunk (and usually, with fake news, that isn't a lot of work).

Likewise with wikipedia, it's a great aggregator, but if you want to use it, better to go to the actual sources than it.

Conservapedia is so comical it reads like a parody site. Intelligent people don't take that kind of nonsense seriously.

Someone already quoted Stephen Colbert though - facts do have a liberal bias. So, apparently, does reality.

I just showed the Consevapedia site to VERY conservative friends of mine. They got a good laugh at that.

True. OTOH, Trump's supporters do.

Wikipedia was launched after the dot-com bubble burst.

You know, I was just going to gloss over that one beginning with the dot-com rage being more than a few years ago...

Yup. I actually had a reply typed out about it being nearly 2 decades ago but then figured what's the point - Ron's belief system allows him to make the most tenuous logical connections and nothing I'd say would change that.

Oh, please. Ron doesn't even need a tenuous logical connection.

Anyone who quotes WMD as a source, yet discounts the Wiki and Snopes completely due to their 'strong liberal bias' has clearly demonstrated that what they want to be true is far, far more important than any actual facts.

revealed by who? And by strong liberal bias, you mean 'uncovering the facts' right?

especially the parts where he openly admits to using fake media, stories and disinformation to get his ways. Right up the alley with Christianity - no wonder it works in politics, since it's been working for religion for centuries.

Roger Stone is a slimeball, but very good at it. It's those dirty tricks that work to undermine democracy as we know it.

True. And the US was founded by progressive, pro-liberal leftists, so who can you trust, really?

I understand where you are coming from. I too used to walk that path. Then one day, 16 Mar 1981, I met the Christ and the scales fell from my eyes. I forgive you.

Know this, I have no desire to take anything from you. All my needs are satisfied in Christ.
