For the Ohio followers: Russia targets Sherrod Brown with phony television news report newsguardrealitycheck.com/p/…
NewsGuard has published a report on this new claim targeting Talarico here: newsguardrealitycheck.com/p/…
"Conservative and pro-Russian social media accounts cited an outdated video of the Mexican president as the basis for their claims she was fomenting protests in Los Angeles, according to NewsGuard, a fact-checking website" nbcnews.com/politics/nationa…
"One of the U.S. government’s new advisors on vaccine recommendations, Dr. Robert Malone ... has personally pushed 13 claims from NewGuard’s Misinformation Fingerprints database of provably false claims" open.substack.com/pub/newsgu…
NewsGuard found that the false claims range from the bizarre — such as the claim that Trump cut off Obama from receiving royalties for the name 'Obamacare' — to the policy-oriented, such as the claim that Trump canceled taxes on overtime pay.
