Facebook Court Filing ADMITS ‘Fact Checks’ Are Just a Matter of Opinion

December 14, 2021 (http://www.renegadetribune.com/facebook-court-filing-admits-fact-checks-are-just-a-matter-of-opinion/)



Surprisingly little attention is being paid to a bombshell admission made by the attorneys representing the corporation formerly known as Fakebook, Inc., which has now transitioned into Meta Platforms, Inc.


In a court filing (https://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3543&context=historical) responding to a lawsuit filed by John Stossel (https://wattsupwiththat.com/2021/09/30/john-stossel-sues-facebook-climate-feedback-for-defamation/) claiming that he was defamed by a “fact check” Fakebook used to label a video by him as “misleading,” Meta’s attorneys ( i.e. Fakebook ) assert that the “fact check” was an “opinion,” not an actual check of facts and declaration of facts. Under libel law, opinions are protected from liability for libel.





Such “fact checks” are now shown to be simply an agenda to supress [sic] free speech and the open discussion of science by disguising liberal media activism as something supposedly factual, noble, neutral, trustworthy, and based on science.






In light of Fakebook’s admission, it’s time for the Washington Post (https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2021/11/10/facebook-fact-checks-effective-research/) to offer a correction to this piece by Ethan Porter and Thomas J. Wood, published less than a month ago, titled “Fact checks actually work, even on Facebook. But not enough people see them.”
So-called “fact-checking” is a fraud used to cover up the censorship of opinions that differ from those of the powerful Silicon Valley oligarchy. And now we have proof attested to in a court filing by one of the richest companies in the world, represented by some of the most elite lawyers in the world.

Work on the assumption that any MSM news source claiming to employ independent fact checkers is a lie -- and you will be 99% + right .
They are as downright dishonest and fraudulent as the vast majority of so called Opinion Polls .

This has been as clear as daylight to most unvaxxed people for some time but this news will be useful for brain clouded Vaxxers who try so hard to sort out best approximates facts .
