Snopes is not a reliable source.

They are politically driven with a decided agenda.

@BobGrant45 GREAT COMMENT. Stealing!

Their “fact checker” has blogged tons of anti Trump crap over the years. They are definitely biased and no longer a reliable source of information
Mathis1 · M
@DukeOfEarle Agreed. I don't think they ever were reliable in the 1st place.
I do believe years back they were not biased but we’re talking many many moons ago. Now? Can’t trust this @Mathis1

Other countries actually bar their people from hearing US news
There is just to much disinformation ,,and it effects them as well .
So they block their people from hearing it ,
I tried to send information over face book so my friends could compare ,
It was blocked there too ,they never got it .
Thats sad ,
When the press is no longer reliable ,and a country is so divided ,,
What do you think comes next ?
I blame George W for that one. There were laws in the US that prohibited any company from owning more than one media company or being able to own television, print and radio. George changed that. Within 5 years a half dozen men owned 90% of media in the US. Things have gone rapidly downhill from there. The “fourth estate” that is media in this country is now agenda driven. They now cite “anonymous sources” and call that fact. @rckt148

@DukeOfEarle George W may have caused it, but the libs have used that opportunity to poison the media
@DangerousPanda Don’t get me wrong, I totally agree with you. He opened the door for the utter stew of media shit we have today and it’s come full circle to bite conservatives in the ass with their nonstop drone of propaganda

As I have said many times: truth has a liberal bias. Snopes is anti trump because he is anti truth...

@DukeOfEarle It really is ... Orwellian. Sometimes I think we are living in an alternate Universe where the entire population has gone insane.

@DukeOfEarle Great comments. Thank you!

@monte3 This is so fucking true lmao, right-wingers only rag on Snopes because they're willing to call out anyone on their bullshit and their leaders happen to have a lot more of it.

which is why it is a favorite of the left.

All they do is hate on Trump. When he leaves, they'll go out of business.

I like one america news for real facts

That's quite true. I found a website that rates factchecker sites, and Snopes was listed as left leaning.

Snopes is garbage. I tried using it a few times, before I knew better, and it's pure propaganda. Might as well watch CNN.

@seeandhear My friend, that is the very epicenter of the culture war. Some of the greatest Philosophers, Theologians and Statesmen in human history would disagree with you. The entire American Constitutional experiment is based on "self evident truths."

@MarmeeMarch Wow! Snopes was my go-to years ago but over the past 5 years they’ve become heavily biased. Their Trump “fact checker” has whole reams of anti-Trump rhetoric on social media. Outside of the political arena I would say they are still largely factual. But when it comes to US politics they’ve given in to the dark side. But I’ll agree to disagree
@DukeOfEarle I think its always good to use as many sites as possible if the info is that important.
@MarmeeMarch I do agree on that. Absolutely
Bet you'd be surprised to learn that my introduction to snopes had them dispell an anti-Trump myth
