| Is snopes even credible anymore? |

| King Tøny:
I notice snopes loves to cherry pick arguments. Snopes makes a claim that claim X is false. When in reality the controversy is about claim Y. Yet for some reason Snopes goes out of its way to only focus and try to debunk claim X. A claim no one is even questioning about. they are purposely manipulating the system. |

You can discredit quite literally anything if your criteria for truth is that incredibly strict. |
| Tactical Nuke:
the problem isn't that snopes isn't credible, it's that the people who are trying to root out fake news by hiring companies to bury it think it is |
| PhantOS:
almost every news source that isnt loving PBS or unbiased news dot com cherry picks their arguments. its called slant. if you want real cherrypicking, visit breitbart or cnn |
