The perfect description.

Thank you.

Thats my point it doesn't matter which side it's media. Facts are are perceive and presented with half truth.

So for one to label their opinion page as "The Fact Checker" is an oxymoron.

Oh yes, that was much more eloquent. It's just lovely the way the term libtard rolls off of the tongue. And just think of all of the kindness expressed by that particular word. I mean, doesn't it take a certain pureness of spirit to insult others with a derivative of the word retarded. And, my goodness, aren't we blessed to have such intellectual prowess shared with us? "Facts are fact not a fuck-in opinion is that better." If only the rest of us could turn a phrase with that panache.

Regards,

Gawd, I love it when the libertard can't even spell libtard. It must be that his TownHall.com cheat sheet lacks a glossary...

edit-Sorry for stooping D-Ray.

Since they are not truly words they can be spelled any way I want them to be.

Here is a quote from the WP piece that contains claims of fact:

Quote:
"... decades of economic data show the poor do better under Democrats, that the rich tend to vote Republican and that most Americans believe Republican policies favor the rich."
Is it your position that the three points summarized here are not facts?

If so, give a factual refutation.

Otherwise, your claim that the WP piece contaiins only "liberal opinion," and not facts, fails.

And answer only if you're willing to retract 'libtard;' I expect you to pretend to want to engage in civil discourse. If all you want to do is vent your malice, go away.

Yep a lot of talk about "Data" his data is what supports his own clams. He fails to mention this or direct you to sources.

The fact checker need to be checked.


Born July 6, 1959 (age 54)
Cincinnati
Education Brown University (BA); Columbia University (MA)
Occupation Journalist
Notable credit(s) The Washington Post

A columnist for the Wall Street Journal attacked the whole idea of awarding Pinocchios as akin to movie-reviewing, saying “the ‘fact check’ is opinion journalism or criticism, masquerading as straight news.[20] The conservative Power Line political blog devoted three articles to critiquing one of Kessler’s articles, calling him a “liberal reporter,” and asserting that “these ‘fact-checkers’ nearly always turn out to be liberal apologists who don a false mantle of objectivity in order to advance the cause of the Democratic Party.
