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.
