A new study examines the huge amount of misinformation being disseminated by a small but popular group of political podcasts. In particular, researchers found that claims of election fraud rose by over 600% in the days leading up to the Capitol insurrection, with the increase concentrated, unsurprisingly, among conservative media.

My cute animal:
Bannon: “Cloacas of the world, unite!”
Is that its front end or its rear end?

Could be in BFD territory
Well, of course. The people need to know the TRUTH … as we fraudulently present it.

They also found that just ten podcasts contributed more than 60% of the unsubstantiated and false claims about politics and public health in their research, and conservative hosts were 11 times more likely than liberals to share such information.

Cute!
I’d say we need less news about repubs doing vile things, Gym, Bannon, O’Keefe et al and instead a healthy injection of good stuff Dems are doing. Maybe it’s just me. Unfortunately, we don’t seem to go click crazy about Democratic stuff.

His advisers had previously said he was not interested in appearing before the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Pence has told people privately that he has concerns about testifying against Trump because of executive privilege, according to the person familiar with the matter.
Repeat…as often as we can.
Why shouldn’t we do this? It is plainly from Biden to US
That was my question too!
