A new Harvard study that will shock the world has found that misinformation ‘fact checkers’ overwhelmingly hold left-wing political views.
Who could have seen this one coming?
Data from Harvard Misinformation Review shows that out of 150 “misinformation experts,” only 5 per cent lean “slightly right” in their political opinions.
10 per cent are centrists and the other 85 per cent lean slightly left, left-wing, or far-left.
