Myth-busting website Snopes flagrantly lied about the lack of visible American flags on the first day of the Democratic Convention, claiming an image from the second day of the convention was actually from the first day in an attempt to debunk a factual story from The Daily Caller.
First, the facts. TheDC reported on Monday about the lack of visible American flags at day one of the convention. Several flags were briefly on stage for the national anthem and pledge of allegiance, at which point they were carried off stage, as the C-SPAN video for Monday clearly shows at the 35:40 mark. Even PolitiFact, which tends to lean to the left, noted that “when the color guard left, so did the physical flag.” After that point, the stage was devoid of any American flags for the remainder of day one.
As reported by TheDC, the DNC added flags to the stage for the second day of the convention — Tuesday, July 26. That same day, Snopes writer Dan Evon wrote a “fact-check” article declaring it “false” that: “No American flags were on display at the 2016 Democratic National Convention.”

LOL!!!!! Now I’ve been told that The Daily Caller used yellow journalism. Also I was told to think for myself. I want us to crush Hillary so bad that she stays out of sight for the rest of her life.
Re “Who is going to Snopes Snopes?
Easy, Snope Doggy Dog. Who else?
Snopes is a Leftist propaganda outlet. It has no credibility.
Yep!
The one and only time I ever contacted them I asked if they could verify whether or not if Lurch “spent Christmas in Cambodia” as he claimed. They did respond with the usual “oh yes, it is true” and then went on to quote Lurch’s book word-for-word! That told me back then all I needed to know about these frauds.
Oh yeah they are, and shamelessly bragging that they are.
They have one hell of a spin writer.
Except we can see their biased way.
No one believes them.
