Presentation of the Fact-Checkers’ Results Can Distort the Truth As Much as Outright Lies

In the immediate aftermath of the speech by Vice-Presidential Candidate Ryan at the recent Republican National Convention, the point has been reached wherein pro-active “fact checkers” can come out with “corrections” even before the words being “corrected” come out of the mouths of the people being “corrected,” and can be cited immediately by hostile pseudo-liberal reporters and analysts even before the echoes of the “corrected” words have receded into history.
We have now reached a point where the pseudo-liberals who dominate the mainstream media have sunk so low that even they themselves realize that they can’t be trusted, so they have resorted – actually stooped—to falsely claiming that “fact checkers” have declared wholesale “demonstrable” errors. The problem is that there are many demonstrable weaknesses with rushing to misjudgment based on this misleading approach.
First and foremost, fact checkers are often quite nuanced and fair, often explaining to what extent a fact is true and to what extent it is not. Life is not always black and white, despite what the race-baiting pseudo liberals may say and do. Unfortunately, the fact checkers cited by the misleading lynching liberals that dominate the mainstream media are not necessarily being quoted accurately or in context, but through the distorted and poisoned transformations of many members of the mainstream media. And many of these “talking heads” seem to consist of minds that are closed to fair debate of the issues, not to mention eyes and ears closed to seeing and hearing the truth with all its nuances. All too many pseudo-liberal reporters and analysts in the mainstream media have proven themselves to be totally discredited and unwilling to present and analyze facts objectively.
