They should get Bernie Sanders’ wife to handle the fundraising.

She's good, no denying that. So was Bernie Madoff. He'd be my second choice.

After their credibility was finally shot there was diminished benafit to Soros.

The money is better spent raising up a new propaganda tool.

At one point they were an interesting and provocative site that debunked urban legends. Then they somehow became considered experts on everything when it was really just an old ho and her pimp in a trailer in Vegas. I wonder if the plan is to have Organizing For America fill their coffers with 25 dollar donations.

The Sn in the word Snopes is one of those rare instances in which Sn is pronounced as a D.

I wouldnt be too sure. You think its gotten that chubby eating domestic mice from under the fridge? We know it wasnt stealing from petty cash for Ahi sushi, no pockets. Im betting company credit card, internet, foie gras.

OMG! THATS where the $98000 went!

[a 16-person operation that calls out political leaders for dishonesty]

HA. Had they ever told THE TRUTH about Obama and Hillary, the DNC would have killed them. Like they have several others.

Good riddance, Snopes. I won’t wish you “Goodbye”.

They really screwed up when they went from debunking urban myths into political “fact checking.”

"At one point they were an interesting and provocative site that debunked urban legends."

I completely agree. When I first heard of snopes, I was on that site for HOURS.

They researched things like the the "candy poisonings" on halloween.

Once they went full retard leftist, they were just a joke.

Never go full retard.

The only people who nowadays cite snopes as an actual "legit" source of information are dupes and fools.

They don't even seem to do any research, themselves. They basically copy and paste the liberal conventional wisdom, which is no doubt furnished by places like media matters.

ANOTHER bogus site, with questionable finances and sexual impropriety galore.

Soros money can only go so far.

They can't cover up *everything*.

Eventually David Brock's shenanigans came out for the world to see.

Someone should post:

Internet rumor that Snopes is asking for money to survive.

Our finding: False.

A reminder for everyone:

Snopes, Which Will Be Fact-Checking For Facebook, Employs Leftists Almost Exclusively
http://dailycaller.com/2016/12/16/snopes-facebooks-new-fact-checker-employs-leftists-almost-exclusively/

Snopes, Politifact, & Other Fact Checkers are Liberal Mouthpieces

And if Facebook is using them, why isn’t it PAYING them?
