Hopefully it will help people who struggle with source credibility.

So, now we need software to tell us who to trust?



Sad.

RW

It's sad but true.  So many people are clueless about sources.

Apparently they lack the ability to think for themselves.

RW

I don't know WTF the deal is with people and buying into info from garbage sources.  I think it's an unfortunate side effect of the Internet era.

Most major news sources are alright except for CNN and MSNBC.

RW

Of course.  Only the "leftie" ones are shit.

Agreed.

After CNN got caught on the Trump-Russia collusion baloney how can even dishonest progressives take that sleazy "news" network seriously.

CNN is now bullying the author of the Trump WWE video mash-up.



It's threatening to expose his PI if he did not apologise.

I have lost respect for that channel and to think I watched them day in and day out before even up to the election results. I've switched to Fox News. Why should I waste my time on CNN? They report baloney now, all of them and all of the time.

That didn't happen.  They called him, the guy shit himself and apologized.  CNN left it at that.

"CNN is not publishing "HanA**holeSolo's" name because he is a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of apology, showed his remorse by saying he has taken down all his offending posts, and because he said he is not going to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. In addition, he said his statement could serve as an example to others not to do the same."

From CNN themselves. Pretty clear and damning.
