Amid the racism and sexism scandal roiling the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), former employees have revealed the far-left smear factory's list of "hate groups" as a cynical fundraising scam. Last year, the SPLC paid $3.375 million to settle a defamation lawsuit involving similar accusations. Now more than 60 organizations falsely accused of being "hate groups" are mulling lawsuits, and at least one lawsuit will come as soon as this summer.
Former SPLC employee Bob Moser described "the annual hate-group list" as "a valuable resource for journalists and a masterstroke of Dees’s marketing talents; every year, when the center publishes it, mainstream outlets write about the 'rising tide of hate' discovered by the S.P.L.C.’s researchers, and reporters frequently refer to the list when they write about the groups." According to The Progressive's John Egerton, SPLC co-founder Morris Dees "viewed civil-rights work mainly as a marketing tool for bilking gullible Northern liberals."
Thing is, it's not exactly news. Anyone with an IQ over 70 saw through the SPLCs lies and realized they were nothing more than a left-wing propaganda outlet.

Sadly, there are people here with IQ’s below that who are still posting SPLC as a reliable source.

>>> No argument here. If you even looked at any of their representatives that came on MSNBC or CNN you could see them sneering and lying through their teeth in what they tried to convince others was the truth. Hey, I'll bet many of them are now working as telephone scammers. Its a step down in pay but a step up in integrity for them.
Regardless of what political side one is on, nothing ever made them a legitimate authority on hate groups in America. I see no good reason why anyone ever took their assessment's seriously...and lots of bad reasons.

this should be a huge news story. however, the msm has spent the past 20 years praising and elevating the splc as the go-to source for the blather, so they'd rather not address this at all.
