Facebook Informs Breitbart Gloria Allred Yearbook Forgery is Fake News
Breitbart ^ | 12/8/17 | Ben Kew

Posted on 12/08/2017 5:25:47 PM PST by x1stcav

Facebook warned Breitbart News on Friday that the author of a completely factual story concerning the accuser of Alabama Senate candidate Judge Roy Moore needed to consult “additional reporting” from the liberal fact-checker Politifact.

The story, published on Friday morning, detailed how Beverly Young Nelson, who accused Roy Moore of sexually assaulting her when she was a teenager, admitted to adding “notes” to part of her yearbook, which she claims Moore signed.

This revelation came despite Nelson claiming at her initial press conference alongside her lawyer Gloria Allred, that the entire yearbook document was solely Moore’s handwriting.

In a message sent to Breitbart News’s Facebook page, the company warned that there was “additional reporting” from liberal fact-checker Politifact on the issue.

“I find the following interesting:

Beverly Nelson was a sophomore at Southside High School in Gadsden, Alabama in 1977.

Classmates.com allows you to search for a school - go ahead:

Select ‘Alabama’

Select ‘G” as the first letter of the city

Select ‘Gadsden’

Select ‘S’ as the first letter of the school

Select ANY OTHER school besides ‘Southside’ and see the search page

Select ‘Southside’ and see NOTHING...blank...nada...zilch

Now go to the Wayback Machine to see what the page looked like on Sep. 4 of this year:

The search page for Southside was just fine back then.

Hmmmm......”

—Very— interesting, in light of what’s come out about the lines being added.

Screencap & archive !

I got an alert from Facebook today that Politifact had determined it was not a factual story, after I had shared the Breitbart post earlier.

Same thing happened to me. But I posted the story anyway and it appeared without the warning.

Right side broadcasting was doing the Trump Rally live on youtube tonight. They informed there viewers that YOUTUBE had prohibited them from running adds because the Rally was not advertiser friendly.

There are in fact efforts by Conservatives to break the lefts hold on the dissemination of information.

It’s a work in progress that needs both our support and awareness.

Gab founder shares a glimpse of the inner workings of Silicon Valley’s war on free speech at Restoration Weekend.

http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/268660/andrew-torba-discusses-defeating-social-media-frontpagemagcom

........They were censoring conservatives, censoring Trump supporters, and they’re going to continue to do so, is what I said, and that has proven to be true. So, let’s get started here. So, this is the Internet, alright? And, it’s very, very centralized, and we let this go for a long time. Four or five companies own and control all of our data, billions of trillions of dollars, and all the power, all of the control, is really just centralized into four or five hands. And, for a while we let this happen, because a lot of good things came out of this. We got innovation and technology. We got instant communication. Some of you are sitting on Facebook right now and making them money right now. But, what happened is this centralized power really became a hindrance, and it became a problem. So, what consumers have is essentially the illusion of choice.

“admitted to adding “notes””

Why did she not say this before?

What did she add?

Where did she add her “notes” it?

When did she add her “Notes”?

My understanding is she about to face a major civil lawsuit and criminal law suit.

And of course now she is changing her story.

Bottom line. She lied, deceived and attempted to tick the public.

A while back I got a notice from Politifact on an article I posted to facebook and if I recall it was a Brightbart article. Their resoning’s on trying to disprove it was hilarious.

Fascistbook promotes propaganda and spies on people (users and those who don’t even have accounts but are “tagged” in photos by users with accounts).

I’ve been flagging all of the false news of the past two weeks on fakebook. None of them contain any “warnings” on the users’ pages that the stories (by ABC, CNN, MSNBC, WashPost, etc.) have been revealed to be hoaxes. Nope, still pumping out lies.

PS the story didn’t “trend” that the “victim” had altered the written text until AFTER news agencies accused Fox News of misreporting the story calling it a “forgery”.

None of this is covered under so-called “net neutrality”. Blacklisting, deletion, and suppression of content are celebrated by the Leftist despots.

The Twitchy folks agree with Facebook.

PSA: No, Beverly Young Nelson did NOT admit she ‘forged’ Roy Moore’s yearbook entry
