if you check the background of every fact checker you will find out 7/10 are openly left-wing or freelancers writing only on left-leaning publications.
also the utter mayority of fact checking today are just opinions. the guy they don't like said X our guy "the expert" say Y. we rate it false.
most of the time the expert is not even named.
Or if something's true they'll find the worst post regarding it and nitpick it to death. The fact checks on FIFA players dropping like flies in 2021 all refer to some facebook post that had a few non-athletes on it. Thank god that one list had a few incorrect names on it or all these footballers dying would be really scary.
No shit.
That's all the media and government picks for 'experts' ever are these days. Just look at SAGE and Stonewall in the the UK. 'Expert' advice panels with the governments ear, and who was on them? Stalinist tankies from wealthy intergenerational dynasties of communist oligarch familes.
There's no one I trust less than anyone who gets the moniker 'experts' from the lying media.
