It’s so nonpartisan that far left loon comedian Stephan Colbert inspired its name.

Does Truthy have a database?
Menczer, September 2014: “We don’t have a database.”

Menczer, July 2012: “In total, our analysis considered over 305 million tweets collected from September 14 until

October 27, 2010. Of these, 1.2 million contained one or more of our political keywords; detection of interesting memes further reduced this set to 600,000 tweets actually entered in our database for analysis.”

Truthy website, October 2010: “If you spot misinformation or suspicious activity, click the Truthy button above. On the right are current related tweets, or you can see the tweets in our database.”

What a liar. I wonder if this is part of the massive database that progressive caucus/black caucus congresswoman whatserface was bragging about ?

Never trust a guy who spends that much time on his hair.

Another professor, L. Jean Camp, from the same university, Indiana U, is involved in the Democrat spying on Trump Tower in the Alfa Bank case. It may be she was involved in this as well.
