You don't have to play , but when you do, play nice.Why are you necromamcing two old threads about snopes?
Absolutely correct.Fact-checking never gets old. Speak for yourself.

People still think Snopes is spotless.
Do not trust snopes.
It's the passion that pushes you over the edge. I've been there; when you are just so filled with it and it has to come out of you.Really? That's your first post to the forum?
Which fact checking organization is Better? Cause too often I think people just don't want to be held responsible for believing nonsense and this "baaaaa.....nothing can Be trusted!!!!baaaaaa!! is a nice, reasonable soundingsbeard for that attitude.You don't have to play , but when you do, play nice.

Yes. Really.Really? That's your first post to the forum?
Point taken, but you might be leaning too hard on some convenient assumptions re: facts and the reliability of organizations. Too often we want to trust reflexively, so what then becomes "fact" may be arguable.It's the passion that pushes you over the edge.

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean... top notch = spotless.Spotless? No idea what you're trying to infer, but as far as reliability goes, it's top notch.
That was entertaining but not convincing.Snopes bad! Whatever you do, do not fact check with Snopes!! In fact don't fact check at all!!!
As I said in another post, it's hard to claim bias when primary sources are being presented and addressed. They tend to have a fair amount of that.Point taken, but you might be leaning too hard on some convenient assumptions re: facts and the reliability of organizations.

Generally accepted without question because it is generally accepted without question. Not knowing who is involved or where they came from, what they've been up to and who might be behind them.
You got the idea perfectly.
That was entertaining but not convincing.
