Seriously!

There's a list.
It is quite clear who made this "list".

The list contains any and every Conservative leaning media website or transmission.



They are pressuring Facebook to do as twitter has done, and remove all conservative political content, or virtue signaling.

A truly futile effort , knowing whatever list they come up with will be nullified after Jan 21st. What is not going , however, is the list of anti Trump companies to Boycott by Trump voters. That list is growing with companies such as Pepsico and Grubhub all losing quite a chunk of market value, following the ill advised comments about the election of Trump.

Please cite your source that the feds are doing any such thing.

If you can't document it, guess what - it's fake news.

Well they can no longer call them all conspiracy theorists... They were proven right.
This is the establishment governments propaganda arm, trying to declare they are the only legit news source... LOL!!!!
It must suck to lose and then be totally exposed as frauds and in bed with the corruption.

Don't know if it is true or not, but it doesn't matter.

Nobody is paying any mind to anything the Obama Administration cooks up now.

What on earth are you talking about?

Please, just cite your source for your original statement.

I like a good story as much as anyone, but when it comes to being outraged, I prefer a fact or two.

Of course there are fake news sites. People on this forum not only cite them, but blast out headlines citing them. Very embarrassing I would think.

It is pretty common knowledge that there are fake news sites as well as fake news articles. I have even found a number of them being posted on this site. Heck, I wouldn't even be surprised if this thread is based on a fake news article, though it is hard to say without any links to what the OP is talking about.

ZING!

I, too, would like to see a source. Unless, that is, Google has become a branch of government when none of us were looking.

https://www.theguardian.com/technolo...iracy-theories

In particular, what caught my eye was this:

The conspiracy theories are amplified by a network of highly partisan media outlets with questionable editorial policies, including a website called the Denver Guardian peddling stories about Clinton murdering people and a cluster of pro-Trump sites founded by teenagers in Veles, Macedonia, motivated only by the advertising dollars they can accrue if enough people click on their links.

I can't imagine anyone would solely get their news through social media, but apparently a lot of people do. What is missing in this discussion is critical thinking, or the lack thereof, and questioning an obviously BS story, like the one about Obama supposedly banning the national anthem in schools (never happened).
