    So, Ant, are you quoting a case of "Their Own Facts" with Alternet? or just providing a good example?

    Eh? How is that post in any way ambiguous to you.

    And it's Alternet not Alternate.

    Thanks for spellchecking that - no wonder I couldn't fact check their opinion piece.

    AlterNet - Media Bias/Fact Check
    In general, AlterNet consistently publishes pro-Left news stories and those that denigrate the right.
    A factual search reveals that AlterNet has a Mixed claim via Snopes and false claim from Check Your Fact.
    Overall, we rate AlterNet far Left Biased based on story selection and wording that always favors the left. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to a few failed fact checks as well as the promotion of pseudoscience. (5/13/2016) Updated (D. Van Zandt 12/30/2019)

    Yea, lets hear it for pseudoscience! Rah, Rah, Rah

    I don't know about that but this is really odd to say the least.

    Enter a riot zone. Smash windows. Leave. Dressed in all black with a full gas mask and an umbrella.

    I'm actually starting to wonder if you even bothered opening the link / reading it.

    In any event you are barking up the wrong tree trying to tie it to me.

    Go back and start over, read the post again.

    No, Ant...

    Posting a link to "reports of", without a disclaimer, is presenting the info as factual and supported by.

    No it really isn't.

    This is an Internet forum not a news organisation with editorial standards.

    Disclaimer requirement for posting a link!? You are being ridiculous.

    OK then I look forward to the disclaimer you include with every post.

    Do you have a boilerplate?







    Ps. And let's be honest here, you're being churlish over my earlier comment and making a bit of a tit of yourself.

    No, I provide a disclaimer when I post a link I disagree with. A rare situation.

    Cool.

    I'm going to be needing one to disclaim liability for any errors I make in over-estimating the intelligence of the TD audience.

    ^ Good Point.

    Hopefully the US is again at a point where decisive action will be taken to minimize, if not eliminate, the problem.

    We can only hope...

    Another good point for "Russiagate" beside their meddling, Novichok, MH17, Crimea, all their threats and the cheap oil, why they do all that?
