I know you have posted on a thread before that links are required
but perhaps if you could do so here, people will read it ...

hi lily
i ask for links on copy/paste posts for 3 reasons...

1) so that the source may be ascertained...it is often relative...if it is an email then that can be stated and anyone can try to look up a source by using the quoted text...

2) it is a courtesy to the source to link to them if an entire article or large portion of one is referenced...

3) it has the potential to be a copyright issue if someone wants to pursue such...posting a link makes it much harder for anyone to pursue such an issue...

paraphrasing an article does not require a link, but one should indicate what the source is for the paraphrased comment...

Then there are the Broken Record posters that only scream, Fake News, Bad
source, Can't be trusted, Unreliable, No shirt, etc... All towards a right
leaning website, or Fox News contributor, just to spoil, soil and discredit the
poster.

That gets old too, and it is only their opinion that it is bad information, just
as the opinion of the original poster beliefs it's valid.

The debunkers are bunk, and their websites can't be trusted either.

well, if they are fake news, bad sources, no shirts..and
someone says so, then that's fair game.

solution: get validated news, good sources and put on a
shirt.

They ARE validated. Just not left so you do not approve ... Gets
OLD .... You libs NEVER debate the sources we post. All you do is
complain about them. We need to complain about your sources
every time you post ... tit for tat .... wont bother tho ...

no they aren't validated...most of the material posted
is from sites that accept public entries (Natural News
for instance)and do not verify the facts in them. They
don't check them, they don't edit them--they just slap
them up as if they're fact and they aren't. There's no
journalistic standard or accountablility when they are
just plain false.

Others (like American Thinker) simply make them up as
they go and push them out there to see how they do.
They report only to political sources they promote and
don't have to adhere to journalistic ethics or
standards. You don't see those stories in regular
journalistic sources because they are easily debunked
and contain invalid information or just plain false
information.

and bare chested guy and info war youtubes? Ohhhh
pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease.

They are not even worthy of debate any more than we
could debate fictional novels.

While there is freedom of speech, that doesn't mean it
can't be criticized, scrutinized and called out when
it's bogus. I have free speech too, and will continue
to call bullshit when seen.

Anything on the right is bullshit to you. Your response is always just a
bunch of bull. Continue to call it out as you will. Just remember you
lost. Thank god people finally saw through the left bullshit. Even with
90 percent of the media against them.

When the alt-right stops printing bullshit, I'll
stop calling it.

You know, the fact is there are several respectable
sources of conservative news that you guys never
seem to find. The Hill is one. Now, they put a
little conservative spin on it, but they actually
check their facts before they publish. I'll read
their articles.

There are others, as well.. but the things Grz and
some of the others seem to catch and find are the
nasty, untrustworthy but "Sensational!!!" click bait
kind of trash.

What about Newsweek? Wall street journal? Business
Insider? Right leaning publications and narrative
for you, and actual verified facts for me. I may not
like the spin they put on them, but I generally
won't contest their facts. Or even ABC, CBS, NBC,
Reuters or AP? They all verify facts before
presenting a story..and are more middle of the road.

But when you use, almost totally, alt-right and
Conspiracy theory and shock jock entertainment sites
as actual news (or video blogs and crap), then you
are setting yourself up for criticism, source
questioning and questioning of any proclaimed facts.

I get it --you like the story they tell. You want to
hear liberal bashing and Trump cheering. You want
to hear that everything is going to be fine,
Hillary's going to prison, Obama was born in Kenya
and Trump is actually the second coming. These were
created just for you. And I do mean "created" --
often out of thin air in someone's basement.

Liking a story and a true story are two different
things.
