I get all my news from FR.
FR and its remarkable membership act as a bulletproof filter.
If the story is fake, there is a beat down by post #3.

Bingo. I learned to do it in high school, back when high tech was an electric typewriter.
SOMETIMES...
Unfortunately there seems to be a smoldering vengeance-happy streak on FR. Some atrocity happened and the seemingly obvious culprit is the focus of an intemperate damnation-fest... until some twist of plot is revealed, and then the damners slink away in silence. Sometimes people don’t bother to read the silences.
Even on abcnews.com.co if you,read through any article, by the time you get to the end, with all gramatical errors and outrageous quotes, most readers should be able to identify it as satire.
If I see Snowden is dead or Hillary’s doctor got hit by a train posted again, I’m going to scream
“ABCnews.go.com”
That is their mobile site, totally legit, except for the regular fake news they churn out
abcnews.go.com is ABC NEWS. the go domain name is registered to the Disney Company, parent of ABC.
I think the fake URL you mean is abcnewsgo.com. I remember when that URL was used on FR. It fooled a lot of FReepers. abcnewsgo.com is no longer active.
Leftist nervana...
chaos
Confuse as many people as possible.
Trash the good people.
Promise what you can’t <and have no intention of) deliver(ing), to people you don’t give a damn about.
Then deliver things certain to injur this nation, if it doesn’t lead to its complete destruction.
Why?
This nation has been the last bastion of freedom on the planet.
Get it so it is not longer free.
Get it so it is no longer capable of or willing to interced on behalf of freedom anywhere.
Then evil prospers everywhere.
Nothing stands between it and human civilization.
” this has been ABC News http://abcnews.go.com/";
Yes, that’s right. It is abcnews.com.co that is the fake one.
See post 31..
Forgive me, I copied the wrong one. Need a new computer, this thing is driving me bonkers.
I won’t post again until I get a new one. Bye.
And the amazing part to watch is how it happens over the couse of several hours, sometimes. The reaction used to be “hey everybody chill until we get some more info.” Now the reaction is “react.”
couse = course
I have long wished that FR could be a forum for more wisdom and less of stuff that sometimes seems to mirror, except in the other direction, what is going on in “liberal land.”
Too much of that stuff and “Bad company corrupts good morals” kicks in and I have to get away because my own mind is getting polluted.
Actually it is pretty much the first bastion of freedom. Slavery or servitude has pretty much been the norm until we came along and if we fall, it likely will never come again into this world.
“The lefties have been doing this for years already.”
No, satire has been around since Aristophanes.
There’s plenty of conservative satire blogs. Our own John Semmens is one of the best.
Busted! Hillary Campaign Caught Inserting Fake Audiences At Fake Campaign Rallies With Computer Animation! Aug. 31, 2016
[snip]The video below from her “rally” in Reno, Nevada on August 25, is twelve minutes but it is worth watching every second. It shows the green screen insertion point – a black line across the “set” – and also shows cellphones from within the “crowd” which are taking video of . . . . nothing. No Hillary. No flags. No cheering crowd! It’s all FAKE!
Unfortunately, your own post above is very likely the very thing you decry in this thread. There are links in other posts about her fake rallies with links to others debunking the "fake" assertions. One video is posted by an alleged video expert who cites reasons why the images seen on the various cellphones cannot be relied upon to prove fakery, and the black line alleged to be bad photoshopping is nothing more than the low black curtain-fence separating the crowd (alleged crowd), from the stage/podium. I would put nothing past the clinton scum, but conservatives need better research and evidence than this before proclaiming to the world they have "...PROOF!!...at last..." the clintons are crooks and scum. This despite the fact some things are self evident to many of us, but cannot penetrate the heads of brain-dead liberals.
“Super Station 95” is another bogus “news” site to avoid like the plague.
