NPR Finds ‘Godfather’ of Fake News Is a Liberal Democrat

National Public Radio launched an investigation of “fake news” sites — which Democrats blame for President-elect Donald Trump’s victory — and found, to its surprise, that the “godfather” of fake news is a liberal Democrat from Culver City, California.

NPR’s Laura Sydell described the process of tracking down fake news sites — many of which had names and formats designed to look like real news websites — and discovering many that led to one company in particular:

The sites include NationalReport.net, USAToday.com.co, WashingtonPost.com.co. All the addresses linked to a single rented server inside Amazon Web Services. That meant they were all likely owned by the same company. Jansen found an email address on one of those sites and he was able to link that address to a name: Jestin Coler.

Online, Coler was listed as the founder and CEO of a company called Disinfomedia.

I'd like to hear NPR tell us about how life will be for everyone when globalism is achieved, when government becomes the almighty.

The whole "fake news" propaganda is about WE THE PEOPLE giving the government permission to MONITOR INTERNET NEWS WEBSITES.

We should not fall for it.

The only way we find out about corruption is through internet websites now. The MSM is bought and paid for propaganda.
They are trying desperately to rid themselves of competition from websites.

Come on.
The people who OWN the media companies are the controllers.
They are trying to make you look elsewhere, anywhere, except at them.
