Comment on U.S. Unleashes Military to Fight Fake News, Disinformationparent

Comments

This was my favorite editorial-posing-as-neutral-news sentence:

as the top Republican in Congress blocks efforts to protect the integrity of elections.

(translation: democrats want to protect our elections, republicans are russians)

I wonder if it will be able to detect massive journalistic malfeasance by people who perpetuated multi-year-long rumors about pee tapes, or whatever other politically motivated "news" posing as journalism

A literal statement of fact triggering that reaction says more about your filter bubble than the author of that article. Instead of just dismissing it you could talk about why don’t think the bills he’s blocking won’t work, how you don’t believe the reported threats are real, or the politics behind McConnell refusing to let legislation move forward.
