Snopes Co-Founder Accused Of Embezzling Company Money, Spending It On Prostitutes
Daily caller ^ | December 21, 2016 | Peter Hasson

The founder of mythbusting website Snopes, which was recently tapped by Facebook as one of four “fact-check” organizations patrolling the site for “fake news,” embezzled $98,000 in company funds before spending it on “himself and the prostitutes he hired,” according to legal documents filed by his ex-wife reviewed by the Daily Mail.

After divorcing from his first wife, Barbara Mikkelson, David Mikkelson married Elyssa Young, a former porn star and current escort who now works for Snopes as an administrator, according to the Daily Mail.

The Daily Mail also revealed that top Snopes “fact-checker” Kim LaCapria claimed on her personal blog that she has “posted to Snopes” after smoking marijuana. As TheDC previously revealed, LaCapria describes herself as “openly left-leaning” and once claimed that Republicans fear “female agency.”

As originally reported by TheDC, Snopes almost exclusively employs leftists as fact-checkers, many of whom have exhibited a clear distaste for Republican voters. TheDC could not identify a single Snopes fact-checker who comes from a conservative background.

The mythbusting site has butchered the truth on more than one occasion.

Snopes is thoroughly BUSTED! Porn star prostitute fact-checkers. Surely, someone here has asked Snopes whether this story is true?

this must be true since it is brought forward by a wife in a divorce case. There has never been a case of perjury in this situation, wives always tell the truth in divorce cases; and it is on the internet so it must be true.
