You are claiming Snopes does not have a liberal bias? Correct?
Someone is blatantly claiming that they DO in fact have a liberal agenda. I’m asking for evidence. It would be cool for once that y’all didnt spin this to make yourselves the victims. But yes if you’re going to provide evidence, please do it.

Patience grasshopper. I wasn't asking what someone else said. I'm asking your opinion. In your opinion, does Snopes have a liberal bias. Yes or no?

Snopes’ main political fact-checker is a writer named Kim Lacapria. Before writing for Snopes, Lacapria wrote for Inquisitr, a blog that — oddly enough — is known for publishing fake quotesand even downright hoaxes as much as anything else.
While at Inquisitr, the future “fact-checker” consistently displayed clear partisanship (RELATED: Snopes Caught Lying About Lack Of American Flags At Democratic Convention)
She described herself as “openly left-leaning” and a liberal. She trashed the Tea Party as “teahadists.” She called Bill Clinton “one of our greatest” presidents. She claimed that conservatives only criticized Lena Dunham’s comparison of voting to sex because they “fear female agency.”
She once wrote: “Like many GOP ideas about the poor, the panic about using food stamps for alcohol, pornography or guns seems to have been cut from whole cloth–or more likely, the ideas many have about the fantasy of poverty.” (A simple fact-check would show that food stamp fraud does occur and costs taxpayers tens of millions.)
Lacapria even accused the Bush administration of being “at least guilty of criminal negligience” in the September 11 attacks. (The future “fact-checker” offered no evidence to support her accusation.)
Her columns apparently failed to impress her readership, oftentimes failing to get more than 10-20 shares.
After blogging the Inquisitr, Lacapria joined Snopes, where she regularly plays defense for her fellow liberals.
She wrote a “fact check” article about Jimmy Carter’s unilateral ban of Iranian nationals from entering the country that looks more like an opinion column arguing against Donald Trump’s proposed Muslim ban.
Similarly, Lacapria — in another “fact check” article — argued Hillary Clinton hadn’t included Benghazi at all in her infamous “we didn’t lose a single person in Libya” gaffe. Lacapria claimed Clinton only meant to refer to the 2011 invasion of Libya (but not the 2012 Benghazi attack) but offered little fact-based evidence to support her claim.

The owners can be liberal or conservative as shite for all I care, none of you have provided evidence that they push an agenda whatsoever. This shouldn’t be too hard.
I agree. Visit their site
Peruse.
It's cumulative
Of course, you already know that. Hence, your silly game
Dude. You're not that slick

For quality purposes could you link your source on the matter?

There's about 100 more. Look them up yourself.
Now that wasn't so difficult was it?

So you used a site founded by tucker Carlson to prove that another site is liberal?
I’m not asking if the founders are liberal. I don’t care what they said about people. I’m asking if they are lying about anything they’ve said is “false” or “unproven” or whatever.

The main fact checker on snopes is liberal
But that doesn't mean that every single thing from there is bullshite. It just means that you might want to actually do a little bit more research beyond just snopes.
Crazy right?

I have no doubts about that. Most movies and music I listen to and watch are made by liberals as well.

Because you are a hypocrite and a partisan hack.
I'll ask a third time. In your opinion, does Snopes have a liberal bias? Yes or no.

It’s an article in a conservative news source stating that the founder of snopes is a liberal. I have yet to see one shred of evidence of a liberal bias on the site. Can ANYONE provide one thing? If not I’m done here

This is exactly why I avoided posting a link. If I post link No. 2 out of the 100 that prove Snopes is bullshite then you will indict No. 2.
It is not my goal to convince you. If you want to believe that Snopes is legit that's fine. You can remain among the uninformed morons who are the majority in this country.
That's why I used the example of SPLC. I always answer your questions. So, answer mine. Do you believe the SPLC is credible?
