Their failing, flailing narrative has gotten so bad, Reuters and Twitter are trying to dEbOOnK a Bee article that made rounds last spring, but was revived in the wake of the Muslim extremist who took a synagogue hostage in TX.

Gotta make sure it’s actually satire. Hard to tell anymore.

The very fact that they had to fact check a satire site to confirm it was satire means the Bee nailed it.

They’ve been fact checking the bee for a long time. That’s how they get Facebook and other publishers to limit their reach, by having snopes and others labeling them as fake.

It's comical that anyone gives Snopes any credibility.

Well, Facebook has legally admitted that fact checking is not based upon facts and it is just somebody’s opinion!

That authoritative enough for me!
