Claims that Hillary Clinton wore earpiece at debate don't hold up
Politifact ^ | September 28, 2106 | Louis Jacobson

Posted on 10/05/2016 11:27:48 AM PDT by Sam Gamgee

For the record, Clinton campaign spokesman Josh Schwerin told PolitiFact that Clinton "was not wearing an earpiece." Asked whether she has a hearing aid, he said, "No."

So, let’s take a look at the original evidence offered -- a Reuters photo and an enlargement that some say show the suspicious, fleshy bulge in Clinton’s ear.

Thought it might be interesting to fact check the so called fact checker. I am suspicious since most false statements apply to Trump and not Clinton.

Politifact’s opinion. Is there any fact checker out there we can trust?

What is it that magicians do? They live in the world of distraction. The article points out that she wore no ear piece then submit loads of photos of only one ear. Focus on that ear only, people. Nothing to see in the other ear, trust us...

The in the article at the link, the pictures that clearly show the earpiece are not included. This must be another article bought and paid for by the Clinton campaign.

Definitely a possibility. We live now in an age where we have to doubt every picture and video we see.

Yes, it was just a thimble sized eardrum wart that cleared up by the next morning.

I got to this site because I told my sister that I think Hillary cheated at the Sept 26 debate. She told me to check this site and I said I am not sure if I can trust them. We found they are owned by journalists from Tampa Bay Chronicle.

It is more correct to say that Politifact claims do not hold up.

Sam Gamgee :" Politifact’s opinion. Is there any fact checker out there we can trust? "

Sure, at the next debate have Illery answer the question whether she used them in the past
Ask whether she is using one now ..
and then have her move her hair back to demonstrate that she isn't cheating ...(again !)
Now I would say that line of questioning would truly be investigative reporting .

Politifact and Snopes are leftist dumpsters. You’re better off just ignoring them and doing your own research.

Sounds like it. The dangerous thing of course is that undecided may turn to Politifact for the “facts”.

Allow someone to physically check each ear with their finger while on camera.

You couldn't tell if she was using a earpiece if she had the The Invisible Bluetooth Earpiece + Signal Button SPY Kit for Students NEW TECHNOLOGY!
