---- and the comparison table is where again?
Oh yeah --- MIA.
Dumbass.
PergDerp sez "muh proof"
Here's one fer ya:
"2. (Huffington Post, New York Times, FiveThirtyEight, et al.) Hillary Has a 98% Chance of Winning The Election"
25 Fake News Stories From The Mainstream Media - IVN.us
Once AGAIN --- where's the comparator? *STILL* MIA, that's where.
Besides all of which, your citation is not "fake news" anyway. If somebody analyzed a 98% shot for Clinton,
then that's what they analyzed. Dumb shit.
The comparators are imbedded into the entire page, I ran down a few and everything is credible.
The only thing that can explain you not seeing them is that you're colorblind.
If you're not colorblind, you're an idiot.
Since Maid Marian flummoxed himself by diving into a question about a claim that wasn't even his in the first place, maybe it's time to review and reiterate exactly what it is that
flacaltenn continues to run away from, shall we?
Here's where we have to reverse-engineer intellectuality for those who insist on using the internets to play Stupid.
Roll tape.
No, it’s getting more difficult for conspiracy theory liars to post their lies and distortions on YouTube.
High time that those engaging in political discussion got called for their lies.
That's a dangerously low bar since
the NYTimes, the WashPo, CNN and the networks are doing MOST of the fake news, lying and the lying by omission....

"the things he most enjoyed"
Still with us class? Today we learned that the word "most" means a
superlative degree. It means "
more than any other in the classifiction". Another way of saying this is that no other entity in that same group is represented as much as the "MOST" is represented.
This is what we call a
comparator. It
compares the degree of one entity (in this case the entity is the group of "
the NYTimes, the WashPo, CNN and the networks") with all other entities in that classification, i.e. purveyors of news.
For instance take a random number like, say, 1929. Is that number greater or lesser than, say, 1933?
Take all the time you need to figure that one out.
____________
Now unless your name is
Death Angel you should have concluded that "1933" is greater than "1929" Mathematically we can say "1933
> 1929". And if they were actual calendar years we would have to conclude 1933 is also "
later" than 1929.
Still with us? I know, it's deep stuff.
Now then back to the question.
flacaltenn claims, and cannot prove, that the aggregate output of "
the NYTimes, the WashPo, CNN and the networks" contains a greater (remember that word?) amount of fake news than the aggregate of all other sources combined -- the fake abc.co site claiming three million Amish mobilized to vote for Rump, the wacko story posted here on USMB about Hillary Clinton not showing up at a rally and being a hologram, all the various Nosebook and Tweeter fake newses about Parkinsons and crossed eyes and Vince Fosters and Bill Clinton's secret black son and of course, as originally cited here, everything on YouTube that is also bullshit.
All of THAT, combined, he says, does not measure up to the amount of fake news on ""
the NYTimes, the WashPo, CNN and the networks". That's his claim. He needs numbers to prove that, and he doesn't have any. Therefore and until he can come up with them, his claim is dismissed as yet more fake news.
The bottom line, again, and no pun intended on "bottom", is that you can't just pull claims out of your ass and expect them to be real without any evidence thereof.
