PSA: 2020 Election Misinformation Tracking Center

11/3/2020 11:21:03 AM

As the 2020 U.S. election campaign comes to an end and attention turns to counting votes, misinformation about voting and the electoral process continues to flourish on social media. Follow the spread of this dangerous misinformation with NewsGuard’s new Election Misinformation Tracking Center.

Listed below are the news and information sites in the U.S. that NewsGuard has rated Red and identified as publishing materially false information about voting, the election, and the counting of ballots—misinformation that could sow distrust in the electoral process and in the election’s legitimacy.

Among the falsehoods these sites have published are that counting votes after Nov 3, 2020, is illegal, that Democrats are planning a violent coup, and that Republican state legislatures plan to override the will of their states’ voters by refusing to certify election results and urging the House of Representatives to decide the results of a contested election."

In other words any alternative right of center website is dismissed with Orwellian term "misinformation." Got it.

Just saw your knee-jerk response. You didn't even investigate Newsguard site. If you had you would have learned that three websites listed -- BillMoyers, GregPalast, and Palmer report are LEFT-leaning websites that were called for spreading misinformation.

Instead you reacted to what you wanted to believe and did a generic copypasta. AlexJones is even less credible than you are but, to your credit, he's more psychologically impaired than you. Good move; don't rely on someone who is better put together than you are.

In another post you linked to an RT [russiatoday] post....somewhere in a Russian troll farm they have a print-out of your TUSCL profile framed by the words SUCKER...USEFUL IDIOT, and the recommendation: 'Feed him anything, he'll believe it and pass on as biblical truth' LMAO

The only 'truth' related to you I want to know is: Is the author of Dave_Anderson TUSCL account as much a dipshit as his posts suggest or is this a parody account of Short-Bus survivor becomes Neo-Nazi.

Really, this Trump memento is for you, bid on it. You'll thank me later. https://tuscl.net/photos/5f9fa01ec4ef6
