It’s the circular citation game. Snopes says FactCheck is legit and FactCheck says Snopes is legit. Thus, both are ‘legit’ even though one is run by far left loons that refuse to make corrections to their errors even when given proof and the other is owned by the Annenburg complex (which means Soros).

It’s the same game they play with their books. Look at the references and citations in a Michael Moore screed versus those in Ann Coulter’s books. The few Moore might generally have are to biased and unsubstantiated sources that point to other equally unsubstantiated sources and so on. A giant blog-based circular reference but without any actual sources. Coulter’s works, OTOH, tend to have lots of references to actual source documents - court rulings, the Federalist papers, the writings of various Founding Fathers, or to the articles being referenced *in context* and so on.

Just comparing the bibliographies of their respective works is enlightening.

So you are saying Hoawrd Zinn's history of America is false?

BAH!!( brb need more exclamation points) BAH!!!!!!

Zero footnotes or references for Zinn yet i get folks that tell me McCollough and others are revisionist BS'ers.Zinn appears to be a go-to book for history in colleges now. I wonder if Snopes or FactCheck would consider his Hx of America truuth or fiction.
