wtf are you? go to bed nordfriend its 3 am
You are right about /pol/ being responsible for fake news.
For example, you just posted on /pol/ an article from the washington post, which is a fake news website, proving your theory correct.

If you ever thought that /pol/ was a trustworthy news source, then you are legit retarded
WAPO complaining about fake news.
>>134016032
Who cares if someone did?
/pol/ is not a national news outlet. Last time I checked we don't have a salary...except Shariablew invaders. It was probably some fag that works at WaPo with a SF86. It's a requirement. Just ask John Podesta.

WaPo is now complicit in letting him get away with it.

So basically it's all our fault their company is staffed with idiots who can't do basic fact checking before posting obvious fake shit.
How many times have we pinned it on Sam Hyde at this point, and yet they still buy it every fucking time.

Notice how they sneak that 'emojis' line in at the end? This is what I call the Snopes technique. They sneak true claims under the radar by associating it with fake things.
For instance, Snopes will take the most bizarre, ridiculous claim from any 'fact' they're checking, and pretend it's representative of the whole 'fact'. So they'd take something like Hillary's poor health leading up to the election and single out the most absurd claim they can find. Say, for instance, someone says that they swapped Hillary out with a body double after her fainting at the 9/11 memorial. Well, they'll use that as the central premise, and treat everything else as if it's equally as absurd.
Then they run a story like "Hillary Clinton is terminally ill? FALSE!". They'll mostly ignore her weird fresnel lens glasses, or her Doc Choc who follows her around, or her obvious coughing fits (that produce green blobs), and just list them as "Some of the many theories people have constructed around Hillary's health".
It's basically how the press gets away with blatant lies.
