#NBCNews #Misinformation #FactChecking
First thing the kid said was “first thing we check is who the info is coming from? Are you kidding me! Second thing is they “google it”. What a joke. Their first 2 checkpoints are biased. Who says who is not credible? The government?
A 14 year old (as impressive as he might be) cannot be the arbiter of truth.
It makes sense that that whatever gender would be a facist fact checker
🥴😂🤣😂😎
Isn’t that a. If joke. Teens telling adults what is fact…..
You cant fact check by using other fact checks
Looks like King Joffrey, quite fitting.
Gotta influence the young generation to avoid “fake” news
I would be embarrassed if this was my kid.
This kid is the male equivalent of Greta Thunberg.
NBC is one of the biggest misinformation you can find
NBC is run by the DNC.
So you’re telling me it’s a ‘non-matured’ / ‘to-be educated’…..adolescent child; that through their own glorification self-designated themselves as a “research-informed/INFO Mogul” (w/their extensive researched & bibliographical experience:
I.e. their many works including: their 10th grade Science Fair’s work-cited; as well as the ‘Bibliography Worksheet’ – mock assignment that they were required to beforehand).
Through this process you’re telling me got my YouTube comment, which I made last year and that I think reached around 14K likes,
Just to get taken down because it brought forward the lab-leak question with a follow-up of the at-time/current lab-leak evidence which was gathered, documented, and articulated… by a “once” CCP virologist; I had posted a pdf attachment of some of the naturals that she had released early on – before even when her YouTube vid got removed too.
Oh but wait that’s right
…BC teenagers know best because they used an accumulation of TikTik videos as documentation.
There was Plato, Socrates, & that kid from 10grade bio. ‘History of the Greats’
Trust a kid with a turtleneck? Foolish of you NBC
Fact checking Covid information is a pathetic scam since we have no facts in regards to this virus.And if you think we do you know nothing about science.Teens fact checking anyone is just a cruel joke.
Explain to me again why i need to believe a 14 year old whose frontal lobe is not even fully developed?
Maybe they will spot NBC is fake news
yeah google and nbc and 14 year olds are to be trusted haahahhah
as quick as a FAKE NEWS double Check … . LOL
You can't make this crap up. A child is a fact checker…Bruh…Really? i am supposed to take a child seriously?
The internal thunderstorm internationally describe because mexican relevantly receive failing a ugliest cloudy. godly, hilarious streetcar
This kid is gonna be president one day…
There is man's idea of fact and there is God's truth. He created everything from nothing, what can we do?
Ursa Minor is the exact Image of Ursa Major. – Hebrews 1
Jesus us the exact representation of his Father
Stop blaming Russia when it's US college kids.
Darkside sounds like pinky kids with pimples.
Colonial pipeline? Land confiscation pipeline?
Do you ever get up in the morning and wash yourself in oil? then go boil some eggs in oil? then drink a cup of oil?
Fact checking using Google? Yeah because google doesn't censor what you search for
I get my facts from Fox News, news max and oann🤡
CHILDREN OF THE NEWS 🪓🌽 #WhereAreYouOutlanders #IsaacTheMessiah
So very bright, all you gotta do is say everything that comes from the right wing is misinformation.
Very bright!
Is it male or female?
This guy looks like the next apple CEO
Using The Washington Post to fact-check is probably one of the most biased fact-checks you can do. Bezos owns The Washington Post. He also founded Amazon, which is a tech company, which tends to benefit from democratic policy. He also donated millions to Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and the DNC. Everyone and everything is biased. Do your own fact-checking. Open source data allows you to formulate your own, objective opinions that are based in fact rather than emotion. Open source data will blow your mind. 'Fact-checkers' check facts, but they also put their own spin on it. Don't forget the people writing these pieces usually have media training and their pieces are usually monetized, so they have a bias and they have a motive.
