X owner Musk came out swinging against the leftist media hall monitor NewsGuard and called for the whole company to be “disbanded immediately.”
Musk responded to criticism from WikiPedia co-founder Jimmy Wales who whined in a post Oct. 17 about the X platform allegedly removing “all the core features that made it even remotely possible to tell real journalists from fakes.” Through discussion on the X thread, Foundation For Freedom Online Executive Director Mike Benz pointed out to Musk that Wales was an advisor to the leftist biased NewsGuard, “which is knee deep in a plot to get gov’ts to bankrupt alternative news.” Musk did not hold back in his response to Benz’s revelatory post Oct. 19: “This is crazy!”
Podcaster Tim Pool joined the conversation, stating that his website’s rating by NewsGuard was dinged because “we ran 5 stories out of nearly 5,000 that quoted Trump.” Meanwhile, as Pool noted, legacy and liberal media outlets that “ran fake stories out of Gaza” like The New York Times get perfect 100/100 scores.
Musk was having none of it. “What a scam! ‘Newsguard’ should be disbanded immediately,” he rebuked.

NewsGuard? Never heard of them.
Nice of Elon to give them attention though.
Along with the Approved terms dictionary by Associated Press.
Jimmy Wales?
The porn guy whose online “encyclopedia” has rabid character assasinations of everyone to the right of Mao Tse Dung?
That Jimmy Wales?
Whatta laff. Go back to makin bang tapes in Tampa, Yimmy with your Venezuelan Luv Babes
It’s typical of leftists to set up some hifalutin sounding moral watchdog organization with some catchy title. The organization is actually one of two slimy perv activists engaging in character assassination and outright lies attacking whoever might resist the leftists sick, evil agenda.
You should have heard about them...
Newsguard has been a major player in censorship during Covid and it is part of GARM:
... “There is barely a billionaire Fortune 500 CEO, heavyweight philanthropist, government or woke nonprofit that isn’t associated with the WEF or the WFA.
In 2019, the WFA established the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, or GARM. Within months, the WEF adopted GARM as part of its platform for shaping the future of media, entertainment and culture. GARM is a cross-industry alliance that brings these mega-corporations – the advertisers – together with Big Tech companies like Meta, who owns Facebook and Instagram; Google-owned YouTube; the CCP’s TikTok; and even Snapchat and Pinterest.
This unholy alliance created something they call the Brand Safety Floor & Suitability Framework. Think of Brand Safety as a dog whistle for censorship. They say it themselves: The Brand Safety Floor means, “Content not appropriate for any advertising support.” In other words, if you publish content that violates these guidelines, you will be blacklisted from 90% of the advertising revenue in the marketplace....”
Newsguard? Even that name is an affront to the First Constitution.
Elon has seen the destruction of his home at hands of the Western powers aligning with Communists like Mandela. Elon is seeing his adopted homeland destroyed by the same Greed and intersection of the political Left.
The Globalists cannot, live a vampire, have the light of day shown on them for it destroys them.
X Platform brings to light the USG and World Globalists’ hands on the levers of power. He has performed an unspeakable sin of seeing and exposing the left - which required exposing the CIA, the DNC, and all the layers of the Intelligence Community’s reach again, and then daily. American’s who support the DNC or the RINOs know that TV and the newspapers are controlled by those they support. Most hard working people used to think these revalations were not true, but with Elon Musk and X, it is in their face.
Americans hear the gnashing of minions teeth repeating the lies of facists.
Newsguard’s Jimmy Wales....
Jimmy Wales (Wikipedia co-founder) attended Soros’ birthday party

Found this article on the NY Slimes:
Speed bumps on the Wikipedia highway
This is an article all about Jimmy Wales, it seems. The following paragraph is clearly about the guy.
And of course, buried in the article you can see this:
Despite some of the attacks on Wales, he is still largely a hero within the Wikipedia community – walking through the annual conventions with assistants in tow, greeting the most enthusiastic Wikipedia contributors from across the globe, receiving invitations to the World Economic Forum in Davos, attending George Soros’ birthday party.
NewsGuard Calls Rumble ‘Hoax Central’ After NewsGuard CEO Called Hunter Biden Laptop a ‘Hoax’
NewsBusters ^ | 11/4/2022 | Joseph Vazquez

Leftist internet traffic cop NewsGuard is in no position to be throwing around the “hoax” label when its own CEO tried to dismiss the Hunter Biden laptop scandal as a “hoax.” It’s a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black....
Michael Hayden, Advisor to ‘Misinformation’ Watchdog NewsGuard, Says GOP More Dangerous than Al Qaeda, ISIS
Breitbart ^ | 08/18/2022 | Allum Bokhari

Retired Gen. Michael Hayden, who directed the CIA and the NSA during his career but has since become a partisan clown, CNN talking head, and member of the advisory board for establishment media watchdog NewsGuard, recently agreed that even compared to other movements around the world, Republicans are the most “nihilistic, dangerous, and contemptible.”
This allegation means that in Hayden’s worldview, Republicans outrank Al Qaeda, ISIS, and the Chinese Communist Party among others in terms of their danger to the world.
