Fake News Sites

There has of late been great media consternation about the proliferation of fake news sites that mislead voters and generally misinform. There is a growing movement within the MSM, college campuses and even at the White House to have these types of news sites banned.
Well, as a free speech absolutist I'm not in favour of restricting anyone's right to publish misleading and even downright false information (as long as it's not slandering an individual). However, as a public service, since there is so much concern over 'news' sites like these, I've compiled a list of some of the most egregious fake news sites online. They range from sites that bend stories to fit a certain narrative to others who create elaborate fake stories, or feature opinion writers writing columns that many of today's university students would consider hate speech (such as the Guardian's Julie Bindel advocating putting all men in concentration camps).
At any rate consider yourself forearmed:

Time Magazine Goes Full SJW

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wVagQ_LVd4 There was a very funny (and very politically incorrect) line in the Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr. movie Tropical Thunder, when Downey's character (who had turned himself black to get a role) advises Stiller, "Never go full retard." I bring it up because recently Time Magazine published an oped blaming Hillary's FBI investigation on, that's right, sexism. This would be a good example of going full SJW (which is remarkably similar to going full retard, in case you missed the connection). Most left wing publications like the NY Times, USA Today, etc. Try to avoid full on SJW (Social Justice Warrior) ranting, and couch their left/liberal bias in more subtle opinion pieces and skewed reporting. But Time maintains Hillary's woes are entirely due to her sex, because the media wouldn't be bothered with a presidential candidate being investigated by the FBI (twice) if she was male. Uh, gee Time, have you ever ...

Top Ten Trump Myths

THE UNTOLD STORY Top 10 Trump Myths by Gavin McInnes   January 12, 2017 View as Single Page photo credit: Big stock Fake news site Buzzfeed just  published  a fake news story that is so fake, it’s not even fake news. “It’s just fake,” as Kellyanne Conway  put it . The editor of Buzzfeed himself says he  has  “serious reason to doubt the allegations in it,” but he published it anyway because this is “how we see the job of reporters in 2017.” So, the role of reporters is to just barf out whatever anyone throws at them? The dossier implicates the president-elect in everything from being a stooge for the Russian government to demanding women  pee  on him. It’s written like a prank from our side to lampoon how gullible and biased their side is. It’s also a good jumping-off point to discuss 10 other myths about our next president.  (1) TRUMP IS AN ADMITTED SEXUAL PREDATOR Jesus LORD in heaven above am I sick of talking a...

The War on Free Speech

THE UNTOLD STORY The War on Free Speech 2017 by Gavin McInnes   January 05, 2017 View as Single Page photo credit: Wikimedia Commons Milos Yiannopoulos “The guy has freedom of speech but to fund him & give him a platform tells me a LOT about  @simonschuster  YUCK AND BOO AND GROSS,”  declared  Sarah Silverman when she discovered Milo Yiannopoulos had just closed a  book deal  for a quarter million dollars. Fellow feminist Judd Apatow was equally disheartened and  added , “we can not let hatemongers get rich off of their cruelty.” The left hates Milo not because he is racist or homophobic (he’s a gay man who fucks blacks) or a woman-hater or a fat-shamer or any other histrionic hyperbole; they hate him because he ridicules their belief system. This is especially evident when you touch their Virgin Mary, the black woman.  As I’ve discussed  before , liberals are obsessed with black women. White men will mo...
