Is Snopes biased to the left? (vanity)

[EveningStar]

Snopes is the most prestigious of all urban legend research sites. But is it biased to the left? Some, including yours truly, believe so. However, judge for yourself.

[Senator Pardek]

For your perusal.

On what basis are you concluding that Snopes is biased to the left???

[Long Cut]

I've noticed that they seem to jump all over any derogatory information about the Clintons. I do believe they have a set of kneepads in their closets, but their de-bunking is usually quite reliable.

Here are some politicized ones:

If Snopes is so biased to the left, why did it give credit to the "I am a Bad American" piece to a FReeper?

It was originally up there as "unknown," then Bootyist contacted Snopes and he changed it.

Snopes is no longer a "premiere" urban legend debunker site IMHO. On some debunks, they exagerate by calling something "False" when after you read the thing, you find some truth and some exageration. I suggest truthorfiction.com.

I tossed a few e-mails back and forth over the Ron Brown facts with someone from Sonpes. He would dodge all of the issues I brought forth, such as, the four pathologists who questioned the official autopsy. Yes, I believe they are biased.

Well, don't expect the Truth in a world to be handed you on a silver platter by anyone. Snopes' or not.

[EveningStar]

I don't expect that at all. Why did you think I did?

[EveningStar]

You will note that I did not cite any specific Snopes articles when I first posted this thread. However, those who responded to the thread did. The articles they cited reveal that Snopes is run by elitest liberals.

Notice the nasty dig at Reagan and GWB in this article about Quayle quotes

Online Rumor Mill Spins Its Own (Liberal) Myth

This is an old article but I just came across it and found it interesting. Liberals are always coming back with Snopes links when trying to rebut claims, but this proves that Snopes is liberal agenda-driven.

[Bob]

Thanks for the link. Great article. I hadn't realized just how biased that snopes was.

[Coleus]

it is liberal.
