Wikipedia Blacklists Epoch Times, Gateway Pundit for Russiagate Criticism
Breitbart ^ | Dec 20, 2019 | T.D. Adler

Posted on 12/20/2019 6:16:34 PM PST by White MAGA Man

Epoch Times and conservative outlet the Gateway Pundit have been banned from use as reliable sources on Wikipedia in the latest cases of news outlets that support President Trump being banned from the online encyclopedia. The Epoch Times ban proposal cited NBC’s hit piece on the site over its coverage of improprieties in the Russia investigation, commonly called Spygate, which prompted smear efforts against the outlet on Wikipedia. Gateway Pundit was proposed for a ban shortly after Epoch Times.

Epoch Times has proved to be a highly reliable and very conservative source of information. Gateway is little more than a blog, but is usually conservative.

Click my screen name. I have been predicting for many months how social media will steal the 2020 presidential election. Google, Facebook, Twitter, et al will be a part of the social media manipulation to defeat President Trump.

I now see I need to add Wikipedia to the mix.

I used to donate to Wikipedia but I’ve stopped. Until they clean up their political bias (leftist/Democrat Party/Globalist) they’ll not see another dime from me.

We’ll read about Wikipedia in the history books as something that once was soon enough.

I like Epoch Times too. Brain Cates is an exceptional investigative researcher there who writes brilliant columns on Spygate and what will eventually be the outcome of Durham’s investigation. You can find him on Twitter here:

Controlling liberals and liberal entities always want to ban and or censor people. It’s a repeated well worn pattern with leftist control freaks.

I believe the only way to contradict my predictions would be for laws and legislation to be passed and enacted requiring that social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook be regulated as e-utilities.

And this must be done now. Immediately. Unless and until social media is regulated and demonopolized, our freedoms of speech will continue to erode. Our very nation depends on regulating these out of control monopolies that can censor and delete conservative thought in the public arena.

Epoch times is usually pretty straight reporting about USA matters.

Epoch Times is what investigative journalism used to be

Instead of just “orange man bad”

I’ve encountered several instances of blatant biased propaganda on Wikipedia that intentionally misrepresented citations about Ukrainian officials involved in the Ukrainian money laundering scandal and were targeted by left wing media sources for their potential testimony or evidence.

I do not believe they are a reliable source of information anymore based on my experience.

Never trust Wikipedia. Much of its contents are written by Communists to cover up their subjects treason outs activities, by liberals who omit the truth to cover up the sins of their subjects, and by people who have no regard for the truth, facts, and ethical writing.
