Kiichiro Sato/AP PhotoSanger, 57, who now heads the Knowledge Standards Foundation, believes Wikipedia can be salvaged either by a renewed emphasis on free speech within the organization or by a grassroots campaign to make diverse viewpoints heard.Failing that, Sanger said, government intervention may be...

Antifa: Wikipedia vs Conservapedia"Antifa" (short for "anti-fascist") refers to a loosely organized, left-wing political movement primarily active in the United States and Europe, focused on opposing fascism, white supremacy, and far-right extremism.

Wikipedia founder Larry Sanger made waves this week when he discussed the crowdsourced website’s outright censorship of conservative voices via a blacklist of banned news outlets. For me, Sanger’s revelation came as no surprise: The news publication I founded and run, the Federalist, has been viciously censored by Wikipedia’s cabal of anonymous editors for more than a decade.We originally drew Wikipedia’s ire back in 2014 when we exposed left-wing darling Neil deGrasse Tyson as a serial fabulist and fabricator.At the time, the astrophysicist and professional bigmouth was going around the country giving talks about the ignorance and innumeracy of most...

The Genocide Lie: Why the Accusation Against Israel Collapses Under Scrutiny. In the months since "Palestine" regime Hamas’s October 7 attacks, there has been a full-force campaign to frame Israel’s counteroffensive in Gaza as a supposed "genocide." The charge is not only false—it is an outrageous distortion of both international law and moral truth. The accusation dishonors the real victims of genocide, manipulates suffering for political purposes, and, worst of all, shields the genocidal intentions of Hamas behind a false moral equivalence. Simple introduction: The war launched in retaliation to Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack that massacred over 1,200 Israelis...

This week, I had two separate meetings with people I’d never met before. In both, after the polite small talk, each confessed that before sitting down with me they had quickly “studied up” by glancing at my Wikipedia page. (Note to readers: Please don’t do the same.) My Wikipedia entry is not a neutral profile — it’s a hit job. It’s a curated “greatest hits” collection of my worst moments, or more precisely my critics’ worst caricatures of me.

Most of the time, you don't want to be a Debbie Downer on the current trends. The pro-freedom side of the political spectrum is currently on a winning streak with President Trump at the helm, and it's becoming more than amusing to say, “Yes, we voted for this.” However, you also must be clear-eyed about emerging threats on the horizon, and thus, we need to consider the serious issue of the dangerous combination of the incredibly biased Wikipedia and A.I.It only makes sense to cast a wary eye toward A.I. systems and Wikipedia, and they're teaming up to compound the...

Ravan Jaafar al-Taie is a finalist to be elected to the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees. The Jerusalem Post did a deep dive into her controversial social media history. By Mathilda Heller.

Abbas' advisor: "Emotionally Oct. 7 stirred the emotions of all of us". Criticizing Hamas for the "disaster" suffered by Palestinians because of Hamas' Oct. 7, 2023 massacre and ensuing war, PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' advisor admitted that the massacre itself was "praised and cheered" by Palestinians. In fact, the murder of over 1,100 Israelis including over 800 civilians, the wounding of over 5,000, and the kidnapping of 251 "stirred their emotions"..

If you want to know how to demonize the State of Israel, read the interview Haaretz's Gideon Levy gave to a British newspaper, The Independent. The Israeli journalist's web of lies makes Pravda– in its worst days– seem like a serious and credible newspaper. Almost every day, I'm alerted to negative pieces about Israel published in the world press. Once in awhile, they include legitimate, justified criticism. After all, Israel is not free of mistakes or anomalies. One can't always cry "Gevalt." Other times, they include heaps of exaggerations, lies, and distortions. This is a known problem, but it's not...

Hitler Wanted World Jewry Exterminated. LONDON, (.JTA).—An international agreement for the extermination of all Jews was the main provision of the peace treaty Hitler intended to dictate to the vanquished Allies, according to a Finnish physician, Dr. Felix Kersten, former medical advisor to Gestapo chief Heinrich Himmler. Quoting a statement by Himimler made to him in Zhitomir, in August 1942 Dr. kersten declares in an article in the Sunday Express that “a peace conference was to be held at Nuremberg with the participation of all neutral countries. A 'New Order' Europe would be proclaimed by Hitler at the Conference, the...

The encrypted-messaging service Signal is the application of choice for dissenters around the world. The app has been downloaded by more than 100 million users and boasts high-profile endorsements from NSA leaker Edward Snowden and serial entrepreneur Elon Musk. Signal has created the perception that its users, including political dissidents, can communicate with one another without fear of government interception or persecution. But the insider history of Signal raises questions about the app’s origins and its relationship with government—in particular, with the American intelligence apparatus. Such a relationship would be troubling, given how much we have learned, in recent years,...

Tesla CEO and X owner Elon Musk called NPR CEO Katherine Maher "one of the worst human beings in America" in connection with comments she made in an interview three years ago while she was with Wikipedia. "Katherine Maher is blatantly racist and sexist — one of the worst human beings in America," Musk posted on X on Thursday afternoon along with a film clip from Maher's 2021 interview with Trevor Noah, former host of "The Daily Show." In a post containing the video, X user @Maze commented that the clip was of "current CEO of NPR Katherine Maher in...
