Fiddle, remember;
Liberal Source=Verified and True
Conservative Source=Probably the rantings of a lunatic.
No; if it makes you angry, it probably isn't true. If you want it to be true, you likely won't look into it too deep. It's not a left/right thing.
If you don't recognize the source, it probably isn't true. Small, unknown outfits likely don't have the inside sources or reporters needed to check and cross check back story, so they are unlikely to break big stories that the MSM can't. And the Post Millennial and Buffalo are known to post made up bullshit, because it makes their readership angry, and gets them more eyeballs..
But a cursory check of these stories usually shows they are fake, especially if the story was posted days or weeks ago and we are just hearing about it now.
