Lost All Credibility
February 4, 2022

Snopes may once have been considered a somewhat reliable 'fact checking' site for those interested in learning the truth in a sea of media bias, however by 2022 has become nothing more than any other mainstream media site pumping out the mainstream approved narratives and vehemently condemning any one who wishes to have an open discussion on current and past political, social, social and historical items as an 'evil conspiracy theorist spreading disinformation.' Time and time again it ignores clear inconsistency's and facts in favor of gatekeeping mainstream 'truth' even as the truth changes to accommodate the new narratives.

I read a snopes review from a court case where a whistle blower states that the deaths from the Covid Vaccine was incorrect. She filed a statement under penalty of perjury. Snopes said they reviewed the lawyer and the woman and dont believe its legit. The hilarious thing is that the court case has not begun. They have Nothing to go by. However instead of being honest and saying the "verdict" is out still and we dont know, they said it was a false claim.
Its 100% not reliable.

Snopes is a leftist propaganda tool. Do not use, ever. Most recent example is the attack by Antifa thugs on Rep. Mace's home. Snopes stated it was a rumor however there's an active investigation for that attack and other similar in her neighborhood. Do not use Snopes as they lie, and skew the facts to fit their political ideology. In other words, they are FAKE.

Thought this site might be informative, but they just don't fact check anything of importance. Usually just social media BS and tin hat stuff. Not for the serious reader.

Snopes is not partisan
November 14, 2020

I tested this website with several scenarios in the news and it is obviously a liberal site. Do not use for fact checking if you want the truth.

Headline says it all. The "owner" left his wife for his side piece; now they're all fighting for control of the service. How does a two person team have time to effectively do this MUCH research and this quickly? THEY DON'T. It's clearly deep state (CIA) owned & operated.

Snopes has clearly gone from a trustworthy source to an indoctrination source. It's very clear, unfortunately, that their analysis is completely biased towards a specific agenda and things that are 100% true are now stated as false by both Snopes and Fact Check. It's sad to see that as soon as money comes into the picture, publications sell out.

You could basically just believe the opposite of everything they say, and you'd be better off. They often respond to new inquiries so quickly that there is no way they actually did any research. Snopes is just a completely biased propaganda parrot.

I used to fact check with this biased tool until I found out they were hiding or twisting facts that I knew were true. Shame on them for misguiding the public and causing so much damage to free speech. I hope someone bigger could stop them from censoring different opinions. They are fake. They lie and twist the truth. They censor others opinions.

They don't research

They want you to believe what they believe. On other things they don't want you to know the truth. They are almost as bad as CNN.

Snopes is fake
February 8, 2020

Snopes claims to be a fact checking site. This is false.
I would trust Snopes to confirm or deny an urban legend. Beyond that, they are wroght with opinions and outright lies. All in all, a terrible fact checking site.
Something that would give them a smidgen of credibility is if people were able to comment on and rate their 'fact-checking,' but unfortunately they don't allow any outside input. It's either their opinion or nothing.

Snopes is a fake "fact finding" website that has no tolerance for facts that oppose or debunks their agenda and/or opinion, thus they label all opposing facts as "fake news"

They used to be good and investigate. But when now they say that the vaccine ban in europe was false regarding the rotavirus (I was in France, it was literally in every single media outlet: the rotavirus being banned because it was proven to kil toddlers), when they say the dansing israelis is false because "muh racism" when several news outlet reported it and it's an absolute fact, they made themselves not reliable anymore.
I can't believe they didn't fact check these issues. What I believe tho, is that they hide truths when they think the truth could have a negative outcome.
They couldn't care less about the truth, they say what is false is true and what is true is false, if they think it can make things better.
They're not any better than the fake stories they pretend to fight.
Search a controversial fact that you know to be truth and witness for yourself: they are not reliable.

Snopes is awesome

When people don't investigate memes before they repost, and end up re-posting lies, there only defense is to call the facts "fake news".

Lame Stream Media
September 6, 2019

Lame Stream Media controlled! Try and find the real "truth". You are hurting this country by only reporting what your investors are wanting censored. Anybody ever wonder why the "Home Alone" kid went completely off the rails for a number of years? Anybody ever wonder why Hollywood and the Global elite are so hell bent on getting rid of Trump? Anybody ever wonder why Epstein was allowed to own an Island that was dedicated to the apetite of this global satanic network of pedophiles?

Wilfully Ignorant
August 19, 2019

The workers at Snopes seem to be lacking the mental capacity to understand satire and the place of satire in our time. Using their position to bully people they disagree with, Snopes continues to show they are not reliable-and haven't been for some time.

SNOPES.COM

Is totally liberal, in fact I proved them wrong on Facebook and instead of challenging my comment which was not in any form rude or offensive just FACT based, They (Snopes) blocked my from being able to comment on their FB page,

As a business criticism is a key player to understand where your company is going wrong and CLEARLY snopes.com dont like been challenged or proved wrong so their way of dealing with it is "Lets just ban everyone who has an alternative opinion to us" A business should NEVER ban their users regardless if they have different views to you or not? OK on the rare exception that swearing or someone being offensive then its justified but NOT just because of the reasons I have put?

This shows their lack of professionalism and how immature the moderators are there at Snopes.com.

Here is the story I proved them wrong on, My best mate of 30 years works all over the world but mainly in Europe, He has visited Switzerland around 30 times in the last 15 years so knows the place like the back of his hand, He has a house there as well, but in the rural areas, And Snopes.com are saying "NO GO ZONES" Dont exist they are lies by the center and right... REALLY snopes? Even though the BBC has admitted there is...

As snopes are a far left group of liberal sarcomas, this is what you would expect from them, Film makers, journalists' TV crews have been there over the past 10 years and been attacked, spat at, threatened by the "Ahum" delights that have been allowed to live there, BUT snopes says there is no threat over there? The NO GO ZONES are places you don't go out on a night on your own and ONLY if you must do, They are also places females DO NOT GO out on a night with or without someone else with them. Even the police go out in numbers and in the hardcore places they dont go at all, One police man on a documentary I watched even said before we allowed them here we had 2 or 3 crimes a year in his province, now its every other day.

This is purely down to immigration and nothing else.

Here is snopes "Effort" to fool people, Note how they safely quote their statements from the police, These police wont exists or names have been changed and I bet no one else has heard of them!

I have a documentary that was filmed and aired on TV in 2017 that unedited shows these NO GO ZONES, You wouldn't want to be there... The most shocking thing for me isnt that snopes is so biased and radically liberal over this, or the fact snopes ignores the horrors coming from the country or even trying to fool people? The thing that shocks me the most is that there is STILL liberal Swish people who think the country DOESN'T have an issue... HELLO SWITZERLAND? ANYONE THERE!

Read other users reviews on here, its all there.
