This comes one week after Hillary Clinton suffered a stunning loss to Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.

Twitter also announced Tuesday that it would update its “mute” function for users to hide content they do not want to see.

Now this… A far left Massachusetts professor has compiled a list of “fake and misleading” news websites.

From his report—

False, Misleading, Clickbait-y, and/or Satirical “News” Sources

Of course they are main stream balanced news sites which the left deems as enemies.

There is no tolerance in leftist thought.

They left out CBS (”fake but accurate”), NYT (”all the news our side feels is fit to print”), CNN (Clinton News Network), and most other fake news sites.

No comrade, these are the REAL news sites.

I had been noticing the past few days that anytime I try to Google and political subject or person the first several pages are all leftwing sites (like those you cited). It was hard to find any source listed for the rightwing side of the story. Guess I’ll have to use another search engine.
