I fail to see how facebook comments are indicative of anything. And I am not commenting on the 'fact checking industry' I'm commenting on the pulitzer prize winning work of a single organization.
- sparkzilla 11y agoA Pulitzer Prize winning organization whose "Lie of the Year" was proven to be false, and who probably knew it was a lie when they wrote it? Just because a newspaper receives a Pulitzer Prizes does not mean that it has no bias, or does not make mistakes. Here's the truth: all newspapers and media have bias, and to think that fact checkers don't have bias just because they say so is completely naive. When a site has at least 90% liberal readers (their FB comments are just one indicator), and is owned by a liberal-leaning newspaper, do you really think they are going to not going to skew their writing to suit their audience? Try doing your own fact checks (I did over 100) and you'll quickly see how their claims to truth are just a clever way to mask their own bias.
