The European Commission has proposed new measures to tackle disinformation and so-called ‘fake news’ online, including an EU-wide code of practice on disinformation and support for an “independent fact-checking network.”

The IFCN was established by the U.S.-based Poynter Institute, which, according to its website is largely funded by various foundations — including left-wing billionaire George Soros’s Open Society Foundations.

Several other “fact-checking” services, including the German Correctiv, have also been linked back to Soros and the Open Society Foundations.

The EU, as well as various individual countries within the bloc like Germany and Sweden, has put immense pressure on social media giants like Google and Facebook to tackle ‘fake news’ and ‘hate speech’ on their platforms.

I doubt there ARE any independent Soros-funded fact checkers. They’re probably all tyrant azzhats like him or he wouldn’t fund them.

Soros cash is busy in Ireland’s campaign for “abortion on request”...... they’re locked in a struggle to the death ahead of a May, 25, referendum vote on its pro-life 8th Amendment, which effectively bans abortion (except in cases where a pregnancy threatens the mother’s life).

Leading the charge is Amnesty International Ireland ....Soros’s funded guru’s.
