"Amid a legal battle between its owners, the venerable online fact checker asks for donations to stay in business. The fact-checking website Snopes issued a financial plea to its readers Monday to keep itself going. A GoFundMe donation page for Snopes shows a goal of $500,000 -- with $97,000 raised as of 12:30 p.m. PT. Snopes.com was founded in 1994 and has been debunking urban myths and hoaxes since long before they were called fake news. The website is currently half owned by Proper Media and half by Snopes founder David Mikkelson, via his company Bardav. In May, Proper Media filed a lawsuit with the California Superior Court in San Diego alleging that Bardav breached its contract. Since then, Proper Media hasn't allowed Snopes to run advertisements, the website's main source of revenue." https://www.cnet.com/news/this...er-of-shutting-down/ Apparently, Mikkelson is accused of misappropriation of funds and gross mismanagement of the company. His ex-wife (and former partner) has been replaced by a younger Snopes employee who's previous career was as a porn actress and prostitute. I'll bet the gofundme money will end up going to more hookers and blow  "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | ||

So the Snopes married couple founders were pulling a Goebbels on the American people, and were also not dealing honorably with each other?? What is the world coming to?

After this, even if they managed to stay in the leftist propaganda business with that site, their reputation is ruined. Why does there always seem to be a hooker or porn star somehow involved in these stories? | |||

Snopes' only stock in trade was credibility which it exchanged for Leftism. These are the consequences. The site and those associated should go extinct. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

I read a great blog today detailing just how connected to big business and the viability of what they report today. I wonder how prevalent this practice is for them https://foodbabe.com/2017/02/2...monsanto-operatives/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live today as if it may be your last and learn today as if you will live forever | |||

| Get my pies outta the oven!  |
Fuck Snopes. I hope they shut down and never come back!  Somewhere along the line they morphed from debunking stupid internet rumors to being a semi-official subsidiary of the Democrat party, rushing out every damn time Obama opened his lying pie hole to defend and explain away what he lied about and to ALWAYS find a GOP statement false, no matter what. They can kiss my white conservative ass. | |||
