They are first and foremost...Hillary and obama sycophants.

They are purveyors of the worst fake news that can be created.

I stay away from the site, refuse to click on it...'cause every click means money going into their pockets.

They are worthless turds, water carriers for the other bunch of worthless turds, the dimocrats.

Ignore them and they'll wither on the vine.

The founding couple have divorced and the website has been on the verge of bankruptcy since 2017 and set up a GoFundMe account.

Politically and socially it skews answers hard left. Otherwise it can be interesting. Haven’t been there in quite awhile.

the garden variety urban legend lore was all cribbed/stolen from Jan Brunvand’s books. Things like cement in a convertible, baby trains, spiders nests in beehive hairdos, etc...

some people use that content to substantiate the other rumors they “squash”. “see they are right about all of this stuff”.

What’s more, Mr. Brunvand used to point out instances where the media itself (knowingly no doubt) spread urban legends in newspapers and on tv because it was good fodder for public interest (ratings/clickbait).

What is Snopes.com – Can it be Trusted?

Yes!

They can be trusted as much as the WashingCIA Post, The NYT (New York Terrorists), NBC, and so on!

It’s as reliable as Wikipedia (for political stuff)

(that’s a joke- Wiki is edited by the general public)

The story is somewhat out of date.

But the answer is still “NO”.

Their interest also lies in getting rich and enjoying a celebrity lifestyle. It was recently reported that the husband (David Mikkelson) went on an extended honeymoon in Asia with his new, ex-porn-star wife, blowing cash by the boatload. Meanwhile, his estranged wife revealed the couple has $1.5 million in their joint checking account:

https://truepundit.com/fact-check-snopes-founder-busted-globetrotting-asia-with-porn-star-on-soros-funded-honeymoon/

Who knew fact checking could be so profitable? Mikkelson has been accused of embezzlement, but at last report, he was still one of the principals at Snopes. And of course, the tech firms haven’t severed their ties with Snopes, which remains a primary fact-checking service.

Barbara and David are now divorced and fighting over the "business." David has moved on and married his second wife, who worked as a hooker till she met up with him. Barbara has been busy embezzling from the "business" and sold her share of the "business" to someone else

Just a few stories from July 2017 - Google "snipes divorce" for more.

If you hear that Trump did something good and see facts to back it up, you can trust snopes to tell you why you should ignore the facts.

They could charge people for relieving symptoms of TDS. TDS even has a medical name “Trump Anxiety Disorder” so psycho-therapists may be prescribing daily reading of snopes to calm patient when they are exposed to news that is good for the country.
