Scott Jennings Exposes The Truth About 'Fact Checkers' In The Wake Of Their Facebook Firing

Posted • January 8, 2025: ‘Journalists’ and their fellow Democrats are still reeling after Mark Zuckerberg revealed that Facebook (Meta) will no longer employ ‘fact checkers.’ Zuckerberg says the social networking site will implement its own version of Community Notes which is popular on Elon Musk’s X platform.
