An investigation by fact-checking company Snopes finds that a series of seemingly innocuous local websites, which have popped up all over the country, are being run by GOP consultants whose businesses are funded in part by candidates the websites cover.

Why it matters: The consultants setting up these websites, first reported last year by Politico, are expanding their efforts to more battleground states in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election.

They claim that the sites are funded by ads. But the Snopes investigation found that the websites are often supported by wealthy benefactors.
Details: Michael Patrick Leahy, a Tea Party-connected conservative activist that is tied to one of the sites, Tennessee Star, wrote in an email to Snopes: "We are in business to make a profit, and have a number of advertisers to prove it."

But Snopes found that Tennessee Star runs ads from political groups such as the Koch-founded Americans for Prosperity and local GOP fundraisers.
The big picture: It's difficult to draw a line between political activism and journalism in the digital era, in part because activists have gotten so good at using technology to blur lines by creating news outlets that look impartial.

Earlier reports have uncovered many of these efforts, and there isn't much framework in place to stop them from spreading.
While Congress has invested countless hours grilling tech companies about foreign meddling, far less attention has been paid to these types of misinformation efforts.

Snopes ?

You're very predictable now

Zzzzzzz

Remember the Moudly Locks woman, a kind of hippie looking Anti-Fa leftwing type, woman wanted to be a tough man in the hood, throwing punches, hitting people with bottles, the 4chan types make a Mockery of Snopes who tried to say she was just cleaning up bottles, in the middle of a damn riot!?

The founder of Snopes, who hangs out with Prostitutes, meetings with elite globalist Soros types, gets high on drugs and booze with all that money, wanted to Censor reports of terrorism torture bombings in Europe, in Paris, San Bernardino etc in the run up to the US Presidential Election


How much does that globalist Anti-American Religious Lobby pay you to post this kind of bullshit?



Looking down the Libertarian route opens your eyes to a lot of stuff, the Red vs Blue game show circus but When people like Ron Paul, Jim Webb or Tulsi Gabbard or Ralph Nader try to speak notice how BOTH PARTIES try shut them up


btw I've no love for Koch types either, these Bros they pretend they are for the Republic but they are all as bad as each other
a carefully managed show, 2 sides of the same coin
