They sometimes get it right, but they’re certainly unreliable very often.

And yet the blue run states say it is racist to clean/purge their voter rolls. This is the type of proof that needs to shut down this BS argument once and for all. Same with the minorities cannot get IDs, yet they want them vaxxed and having a vax card? BS.

I often see people criticize Gateway Pundit here as if their reporting is problematic. But I've probably seen more instances of articles in the NY Times, CNN, etc. needing to publish corrections / retractions than GP.

The problem with the gateway pundit is they often post sensational stories that can only be found there. If something is true and interesting it will get picked up by other outlets that will corroborate the story.

I wouldn't trust anything on there until I see it come up somewhere else that isn't a complete hack site.

The opportunity for fraud is there because of poor controls and the rationalization to commit fraud is there because OMB.

Denying fraud at this point just makes you a fricking moron.

I am not saying there is something with the year 1918 but I know there is an auto year assigned to protect abused people or something along those lines because of the public information.

It is often problematic. Not really worse than the leftist sites. And it’s more open about its bias. So not the end of the world.


Somewhat fair criticism. The part I bolded, though, already distinguishes it from CNN, NYT, etc., who pretend to not be biased. Your post made me actually go to the GP site to see if they are honest in their bias, and you are correct... From the subtitle on the top of the page under Gateway Pundit, citing that they "leave the Russia-Collusion fairy tale to the Conspiracy media" to their "About" page, which openly states:
quote:

Founded as a counter to the establishment media that primarily shares news and opinion from a decidedly liberal perspective, TGP we believe it is important that we are transparent about our beliefs and perspectives and how it may shape our news and opinion priorities.  Our focus is to make editorial choices that address the gap in the politically liberal leanings of establishment media outlets.

To my eyes, this honesty about who they are separates them from mainstream media who starts at a dishonest position of feigned objectivity.

I never read GP outside of when links are posted here, and somewhat dislike their sensationalist, nearly click bait style... That being said, every time I do read an article from them, I don't find any glaring issues with the content (in contrast to msm).

Back to the topic of the OP, I again find the reporting accurate: A group, Wisconsin HOT, contacted election officials about 23k voters w/same phone #, and 8k with a registration year of 1918 in one county. And those officials have not responded.

I don't like the formatting of the article, but it's legit reporting of a problem that can undermine fair elections (and has arguably done so). This deserves a somewhat large headline and deserves answers, no?

Milwaukee had a police division dedicated to voter fraud because it was such an issue. Democrats got tired of the investigations and just ended the department.

I agree it can appear sensationalist as I said in my last post, which is after your reply. I highly disagree with the bold part. The Hunter Biden laptop / corruption news, for instance-- and the emails are continuing to trickle out-- was highly ignored by MSM during the election, except by them straining to frame it as, "Well, here's a questionable story being pushed by right wing fringe media that we aren't in a position to say is true." That is objectively bad reporting, and it's not covering the story, period.

No but if people like Breitbart aren't even picking it up and running with it that might tell you something.
