It’s been garbage since its inception. People trusted it simply because of the name.

Did you expect anything more from an Annenberg funded/sponsored site?

It is a fraud.

Depends on the Wiki, but in general, yeah.

I believe Wikipedia’s stupidity has been well-documented. I’d go there for purely factual information on a neutral topic (say, an article on how hydraulics work) but if the topic remotely resembles politics, it’s immediately worthless.

"It’s been garbage since its inception. People trusted it simply because of the name."

I agree, but I never knew it existed until Dick Cheney plugged it during the 2004 VP debates. Seems rather useless now.

When they got it wrong about that sex-ed ad used against Obama, I figured they were just another group in the tank for the messiah.

Well of course.

Fact Check is part of the Annenberg Foundation....the very same people who sponsored the Annenberg Challenge that Ayers and Bambi sat on the board of.

If it is used by CNN and MSNBC, one must know it is partisan.
