so he covered it in video

2019-01-24 12:28:44 UTC  

i already said imo they base it on % of fake news vs legit news rather than how much big propaganda they throw

2019-01-24 12:29:14 UTC  

did he look at how damn biased it is and by whom it is made? @⛧アシュトン⛧ it's just giving mainstream liberal outlets 5/5 (even they don't know why apparently, with numerous edits and opinion pages getting flagged) while all conservative sites are getting 1/5 so far @⛧アシュトン⛧

2019-01-24 12:29:19 UTC  

for me every news that pulled gamers are dead is fake news ;P

2019-01-24 12:29:21 UTC  

The media is just one industry that can pledge allegiance to whatever state...

2019-01-24 12:29:32 UTC  

Just use newsguard

2019-01-24 12:29:33 UTC  

not all ?

2019-01-24 12:29:38 UTC  

That's the best one

2019-01-24 12:29:40 UTC  

fox is having good rating there ?

2019-01-24 12:29:48 UTC  

It's not important that it's the industry a true fascist state would target first

2019-01-24 12:29:50 UTC  

there is a lot of shitty conservative sites so i'm not surprised

2019-01-24 12:30:01 UTC  

no, just sites like CNN get a good rating

2019-01-24 12:30:10 UTC  

umm edge is using newsguard ?

2019-01-24 12:30:21 UTC  

it is soon

2019-01-24 12:30:29 UTC  

they are testing it in the insider track

2019-01-24 12:30:50 UTC  

point is a lot of conservative mainstream news sites

2019-01-24 12:30:53 UTC  

aim for baby boomer

2019-01-24 12:31:02 UTC  

who are less inteligent and more likely to bite bullshit

2019-01-24 12:31:10 UTC  

and they want confirmation bias

2019-01-24 12:31:21 UTC  

so a lot of conservative / right wing sites produce more bullshit

2019-01-24 12:31:23 UTC  

is a "real" or "old fashionned" fascist state even possible in today's information age ?

2019-01-24 12:31:32 UTC  

as such a lot of them are getting fake news there 😛

2019-01-24 12:31:45 UTC  

oin the other hand a lot of lib sites manipulate the real news

2019-01-24 12:31:54 UTC  

to make it seem the way they like

2019-01-24 12:32:16 UTC  

as such they often publish truth but manipulated, in overall they get way more technically correct news

2019-01-24 12:32:25 UTC  

even if it is propaganda

2019-01-24 12:33:04 UTC  

that said to me it's more dangerous cause when they do throw some fake news it has more legitimacy with it

2019-01-24 12:33:25 UTC  

CNN gets 5 out of 5 stars for being trustworthy... on their coverage of covington from newsguard

2019-01-24 12:33:28 UTC  

and imo newsguard should give some shit stars for everytime that happens even if overall is good

2019-01-24 12:33:43 UTC  

daily mail's site is at 1 out of 5

2019-01-24 12:33:55 UTC  

it rates websites not articles afaik

2019-01-24 12:34:10 UTC  

so cnn deserves a perfect score?

2019-01-24 12:34:20 UTC  

so for example they take majority of cnn news that's availible

2019-01-24 12:34:29 UTC  

and compare amount of fake news vs legit news

2019-01-24 12:34:51 UTC  

nah im o majority of those sites don't deserve perfect score

2019-01-24 12:35:08 UTC  

just pointing out it's the way they're scored is the reason one is good other is bad

2019-01-24 12:35:15 UTC  

isn't newsguard about accountability too ? if cnn makes some fake news but is relatively quick to redact and make an apology i think it's fair

2019-01-24 12:35:35 UTC  

to me the app is usesless cause all it says 'this site is utter shit' as if you couldn't see it yourself

2019-01-24 12:35:35 UTC  

they've been doubling down on the buzzfeed and covington stories

2019-01-24 12:35:56 UTC  

Yeah, they do it with sneak edits but it does end up ok
