Un-fact checking: Politifact reverses its “Fact Check” from last year
Last Fall, Politifact said a story that SARS-CoV-2 could have been created in lab was “Pants on fire” level lying.
In May of 2021, Politifact has reversed its “Fact Check”
This is the problem with “Fact Checkers” censoring discourse. Ultimately it has to be up to individuals to decide if they believe something or not.
“Fact Checkers” have become a form of propaganda, too – quick to label items that someone disagrees with as “False”, when the truth may be difficult to discern.
