The CEO and president of Snopes, the website that advertises itself as “the internet’s definitive fact-checking resource” is facing major heat after admitting to plagiarizing dozens of articles.
A BuzzFeed News investigation found that David Mikkelson was involved in a major plagiarizing scandal that encompassed a whopping 54 pieces, Business Insider reports.
“Plagiarism undermines our missions and values, full stop,” Snopes executives said in a statement. “It has no place in any context within this organization.”
Proving that Snopes are simply scribes for the government controlled mainstream media. “Investigation” into truthiness consists of the copy/paste button. Meh. Snopes = Useless garbage.
I gave up on Snopes 10 or 15 years ago. It’s all bullshit or feeble excuses in support of international socialism. I haven’t checked Snopes for years and years.
only 54?
Exactly. If it’s 54 there’s bound to be more they haven’t yet admitted.
And there are many more. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
I can see somebody now.
Well I don’t know> I think I’d better consult Snopes to see if this is true of not.
wait a minute. They’re not ‘retracting’, they all ready put it out there. Just because you’re plagiarizing from another unreliable source doesn’t mean it isn’t really true or false. 54 known ‘plaging’ incidents, and it’s up to the Snope’s reader to know (or preferably, simply accept) whether their ‘true’ or ‘false’ is either false or true. Semantic warfare at which the left excells.
Kinda liking helping a lie go ’round the world while the facts simply stand.
