I'm not aware of any "news aggregators" that aren't full of disinfo. It's the nature of the beast. If you're automatically picking up stories and spewing them back out, you're going to pick up a lot of shit along with it. This is one of the main reasons I don't really trust must of what I read, and nothing that I see on TV, when I bother to watch. I try to hit primary sources only, or at least, get closer to primary sources. There is no end to the nonsense out there. I thought it was bad 20 years ago. Frankly I couldn't have predicted how fucked this sort of thing was going to get. The recent bullshit of blaming Russia for everything under the sun would be particularly disturbing, if I didn't suspect both sides have a gentleman's agreement to play good cop/bad cop for one another to keep the masses in line. Ah well.. back to coding..
So this morning I saw the rumor again FB gleaned by a 'friend' from a radical-oriented news consolidator-regurgitator.
**National guard troops are wielding guns at the NoDAPL protest in North Dakota and making arrests"**
There ARE NO NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS ARRESTING PROTESTERS!
So it got me thinking (I'm dangerous when I do that) Exactly who is spewing this disinformation?
Hey looky here! It's Da Fedz!
