Politifact

Facebook sparked outrage among free speech advocates when it fact-checked a senior economist with the American Institute of Economic Research for spreading so-called misinformation. The platform flagged the economist for — get this — correctly defining the word “recession.”

This is how tilted PolitiFact is: there was no "fact check" on Al Gore going on national TV and saying "climate deniers" are like the police in Uvalde that let children be murdered, but former Rep. Doug Collins drew a "False" for saying on Fox Business that Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar got "fake arrests" on Capitol Hill to protest abortion.

Facebook fact-checker PolitiFact played the role of the village idiot by fact-checking an Instagram post that dared to slam the Biden White House for redefining the word “recession.”

PolitiFact has a tremendously annoying habit of tagging pro-life groups as "Mostly False" for saying something that's True. Blue states like Oregon, Vermont, and New Mexico have no prohibitions on abortions. But somehow it's "Mostly False" to say you can get an abortion at any time for any reason.

PolitiFact’s routine tendency to defend President Biden’s accuracy in his public proclamations continued within hours of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision on Friday. Biden claimed America was now an “outlier among developed nations” in the world. They ruled "Mostly True"! In truth, America was an outlier before Friday.

Florida-based PolitiFact picked a fight with Christina Pushaw, the press secretary for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, and she didn’t shrink from the fight. PolitiFact editor Angie Drobnic Holan wrote a fundraising piece titled “PolitiFact reporters face online harassment; we keep fact-checking anyway.“

After the mass murder of 10 in a Buffalo, New York, supermarket committed by a man who posted a racist manifesto, Wesley Lowery, a CBS reporter, said: “Let's be clear, the stuff Tucker (Carlson) and Laura Ingraham say every night, it could be written by white supremacists very often. There's a section of this manifesto where the shooter starts talking about, 'People will always say diversity…

Facebook shrouded one of Brigitte Gabriel’s posts with a phony fact-check warning. Did the platform’s algorithm fail again?

PolitiFact has jumped into evaluating the contentious Pennsylvania Republican primary to succeed Sen. Pat Toomey. They've haven't gone easy on the celebrity in the race, Dr. Mehmet Oz. But for some reason they jumped on Dave McCormick for a negative ad on abortion which demonstrates the dramatic flip-flop Dr. Oz has very recently taken on abortion. McCormick drew a "Mostly False"…

The Democrat "fact check" website calling itself PolitiFact is so fervently dedicated to defending President Biden that it's repeating its lame fact checks of previous Kentucky Derby jokes. On Monday, staff writer Monique Curet threw a "Pants on Fire" rating at a Facebook user named Eddie Foley -- with about 1,300 friends at this juncture -- for repeating a joke about Biden being insulted as a…

Andrew Stiles at the Washington Free Beacon proclaimed PolitiFact was "PANTS ON FIRE" in a Monday fundraising email sent by their audience director, Josie Hollingsworth. "Help us hold politicians accountable," she begged. Stiles turned that around in fact-check style, and evaluated a month of the website's contents.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk correctly slammed NBC News for trying to bury the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. Phony fact-checker PolitiFact tapped into all levels of Pravda to pretend that wasn’t true.

How exquisitely sensitive can PolitiFact be? On Thursday, "fact checker" Samantha Putterman slammed the Republican National Committee as "False" for leaving out one word of a Biden quote about the children belonging to teachers as "missing context." 

PolitiFact acts like its role is not to check facts, but to suppress embarrassing videos of Biden and Harris. Last month, they cried False about an embarrassing Harris performance at a press conference in Europe. Now, they've claimed that when Biden ended a speech and attempted to shake hands with a non-existent person, he was pointing! Doesn't everyone point with all five fingers?
