[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 2668303, member: 12952"] I found a story about fake news , but because MrFedx will only discredit the source I refuse to list it . “fact-checker” sites run by: [LIST] [*]A gamer. [*]A leftist, Trump-hating, feminist professor who specializes in “fat studies.” [*]A sex-and-fetish blogger. [*]A health-industry worker. [*]Organizations with billionaire Democratic Party activists and donors. [*]And another guy who went to extreme lengths to conceal his identity. The website [URL='http://www.pigscast.com/']Pigscast[/URL], which stands for Politics, Internet Gaming and Sports, was founded by “gamer” [URL='https://twitter.com/WHealyIV?lang=en']Will Healy[/URL].
