Sneaky Liars of PolitiFact at it again: Lying about the Thin Blue Line flag

What is “mostly true” about the claim in their judgement? A flag was flown: True. Was it an anti-Black Lives Matter flag? No, but maybe someone somewhere could see it that way, even though it is in fact a Thin Blue Line flag. Therefore, mostly true.

Because of their open bias, PolitiFact has contracts with social media companies to determine truth from lies, to decide which news gets throttled and blocked. This little group of liars decide what news you see or don’t see.



Facebook Admits in Court That its ‘Fact-Checks’ Are Just ‘Opinions’

Facebook has admitted in a defamation court case that the “fact-checks” used by the site to blacklist non-corporate media content are actually opinion-based labels, therefore they can’t be sued for their smear campaigns because they are not actually asserting facts.

How PolitiFact Turns Truths Into Lies

NOTE: When Politifact lies and rates a news story as false, links to that story get censored or downgraded on Facebook and others. This gives them huge power to control which news gets spread or blocked. Their bias then runs rampant.
