Internet giants proposed new regulations to crack down on content this week.
This comes one week after Hillary Clinton suffered a stunning loss to Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
Via WTVM— Both Facebook and Google have announced that they are curbing the searchability of phony news across their platforms. Google said they would stop fake and misleading websites from utilizing the company’s ad-selling software, stopping their revenue.
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

Yeah, that list is circulating on Facebook this morning.
This is where a viewpoint-agnostic web service company would permit customers to designate the kind of media customers they want to be. However Google is married to the left and can’t do that. Hello, dustbin of history?
How about eff you. Does eff you work for you? No? Then EFF YOU. Maybe that will work better.
Spell my name right, ya hack. :)
Cool. Now we have a list of sites to visit more often for fair and balanced news.
I would be happy to create a site that ONLY lets those news sites on, and lets see who wins
It’s the top news site. It’s bigger than the so called MSM.
Anyhow, if they do this, then they are going to lose a lot of members.
They will go the way of Digg or My Space.
Reedit tried it and had to reverse policy because it just slow bled them.
Finally, someone else will fill in the gap and they will go into the dust bin in history. Haha!
Yes, there must be a ministry of information coming soon...
This media will shut us all DOWN, if we don’t shut them down first! We cannot sit idly by and watch them destroy Trump and everything conservative.
Those who show up, WIN.
Ministry of Truth...................
Her twitter account is set to private.

I’m going to watch my copy of “1984” this afternoon. I’m sure I will notice some more similarities I’ve forgotten. I’ll bet schools don’t require 1984 or Animal Farm anymore.
These are among the sites Hiltler would have gone after if she had gotten in.

It’s one guy’s opinion. Ignore him.
The results of the recent election proved that the “fake news sites” are CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, PBS, NY Times, Washington Post, and any other commie propaganda outlet that supported Hillary.
The moment I heard about this I knew this was a leftist tactic to try and stop people from getting info from FB. They KNOW they lost because people circumvented the lying MSM. They HAVE to regain that monopoly.
They will try to starve them and make them go away.
Didn’t Obama just give away the internet?
Coincidence anyone?
