Disillusioning if you believe everything the elite media reports. Taken from the Daily Caller's top 30 but people on the forum have a short attention span and many might not even know these stories were censored, retracted or corrected.

The Daily Caller

I’m not super familiar with them. I assume they are a completely unbiased news source?

Targets MSM and ignores all the crap put forth by alternative media.


No mention of the plethora of fake news stories about the Parkland shooter, fake victims and student survivors. Same deal with the Thousand Oaks mass shooting.

Which story do you dispute? These were from your own elite, legacy media.

Beat me to it, a Fox News contributor that regularly appears on Sean Hannity claiming to be the arbiter of fake news, that's hysterical.

Bongino spent 4 years in the Secret Service after working in the NYPD for 4 years earlier.

He ran for a House seat in Maryland and lost, then ran for a Senate seat there and lost. He then moved to Florida, where he ran and lost for a House seat there.

After his years in the White House, he wrote a book about it in 2016 which as a best-seller. This is apparently they only experience the guy has as a journalist, but it was enough to land him on Hannity as a talking head on the radio once in a while.

So take his list for what it is- a conservative screed from a staunch Trump supporter who's stated goal in life is "owning the Libs". (His words, not mine.) I'm curious as what he wants to do with them after he owns them all.

Debunking the story too much trouble for you compared to attacking the messenger huh?
