LOL: Sandy "Red" Cortez Whines About Being Fact-Checked, and Suddenly the Leftwing Media Rushes to Agree, "Yes, Fact-Checking is Biased and Ideologically Motivated"

You don't say.

Which truths and falsehoods the mainstream press chooses to spotlight — and which it leaves unscrutinized — reflect the ideological biases of the “objective” press. @EricLevitz writes https://t.co/AsRVtxH6EO

Mark Hemingway points out that he's been writing about this issue for a decade -- but New York Magazine never said that he was right.

As someone who's been critiquing media "fact checkers" forever, this article is hilarious and validating. AOC gets fact-checked and now the wider press sees the problems with what they do? Before it was just the GOP lies so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ https://t.co/ctkCEgU7sF pic.twitter.com/nUmCjeQ8zs

By the way: At the link, you'll see that AOC still has her lie up about a constituent whining that he doesn't know what to do now that he's missed federal paychecks.

Not a single federal paycheck has not gone out as scheduled yet.

But hey, facts are just tools of the patriarchy.

And fact-checks are partisan things smeared in ideology -- but only if Red Cortez is being fact-checked.
