I'm pretty okay with the shoe being on the other foot with regards to literal fictionmongers like Alex Jones on the Internet.
The problem isn't that Infowars won't be ranked highly for news queries, the problem is exactly what GP said and what you glossed over: SV/academia people, who are overwhelmingly left-leaning (by location if nothing else), are not impartial arbiters of factuality.
And it's not like anyone is, but only the SV/academia types are getting input here.
That is a problem.
There is no way, none, that this won't be used against factual news with a conservative bent. I'd wager my
entire net worth on it.
