Didn’t snopes claim to be neutral at some point? I never thought fact checkers would have an agenda. Boy was I wrong.

Yeah Hillary's camp went putting money into a lot of sites running up to 2016. Reddit and The Onion being two big ones in addition to Snopes.

Don’t forget ACLU, SPLC, multiple money funneling companies that ran the BLM donations, and on and on.

nah they still had pseudo credibility then, it was only niche sites repotting their exxagerations. I think it was midway through TURMPF where they went fully partisan and it became obvious to even normies.

I was googling (well, duck duck go-ing) to find her exact quote from the VP debate and curiosity got the best of me...I figured they'd say "mostly false" (I think a fair assessment would be "mixed" since she had mixed messages about it) but nope they went Full Snopes:

Harris did not refuse to take the vaccine, nor did she discourage others from taking it, but she said she did not trust then-U.S. President Donald Trump’s vaccine rollout policy or his statements about COVID-19. She said she would listen to medical experts such as Dr. Anthony Fauci, but would not take Trump’s word for it.

From the 2nd last paragraph:

During the October 2020 vice presidential debate, Harris categorically stated, “If the public health professionals, if Dr. Fauci, if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I’ll be the first in line to take it. Absolutely. But if Donald Trump tells us that we should take it, I’m not taking it.”

Was disappointed Pence didn't immediately quip back "what if both say it?" But the fact is she did say "if Donald Trump tells us that we should take it", which he did, that she wouldn't take it.

Given that Harris’ words were clearly misrepresented by numerous outlets and Long, and the video was selectively edited, we rate this claim as “False.”

Snopes has become the Buzzfeed of fact checkers, and that was a competition with fact checkers similar to kotaku, polygon and cnn... So... Uh...

Deceptive Truths, you just have to understand English well enough to see this isn't a lie to start hating the media even more.

I thought the olmypics ended a few weeks ago? Snopes is trying to steal Sunisa Lee's well earned gold weeks after the competition in Tokyo ended, SAD!

I'l give them second place to mental olympics, right behind camel queen kamala ;-P
