Fact Check 1: Full Fact's Dr Fergus BROWN uses straw man argument while both denying, and accepting, that Covid-19 vaccines might have caused strokes and migraines.
Paid opinions that are almost always written by young inexperienced people who are either not yet out of, or just graduated from, undergraduate study. Finding an experienced writer who does these 'fact check' pieces is rare. Of the few seasoned journos doing Fact Check pieces, every one we have reviewed thus far has an established career publishing fictional stories (like say Leo Benedictus) which leaves us wondering whether their fictional writing experience is not as far removed from writing fact checks as you might think!?!
I am currently undertaking research into fact checkers. I have found 500 globally but this is the tip oh the iceberg as I can only locate fact check groups that are visible - for example members of the IFCN, members of the Credibility Coalition or listed on Duke University Reporters Lab. I know there are more because I am told so. For example in Indonesia it is well publicised that there are 22 Cek Fakta fact check groups and I’ve only found seven. The money that is paid to fact checkers is incredible. For example in a recent Big Brother report in U.K. their investigation revealed over a million pounds each paid to two fact check groups and over £100,000 to another. They are funded by a whole range of funders - the recent Twitter files documented money from US government, UNICEF and WHO but Google and Facebook are HUGE funders. Also many large American and German foundations, and other media associations and when you look at their founders it included WEF, EU, and UN. This is a very well funded network and the censorship of information could not go on without them.

I found out a few months back, that bill gates and George soros went to Europe in 2015 and put up the money to set up a fact checking organisation - that’s what we’ve witnessing today . From 2015 this fact checking organisation has become well established- they are pretty much paid shills for this organisation. Inside unis, medical organisations as well as “ apparent” freelancers all on the payroll and with prepared responses much like big tech.
So-call "Fact-Checker" websites are, in fact, merely opinion blog websites of self-annointed ministers of truth. We all must Fact-Check the Fact-Checkers. I've had my share of wins, and they don't bother me anymore: https://jameslyonsweiler.com/2020/08/27/who-is-fact-checking-the-fact-checkers-oh-wait-thats-my-job/
Couldn't agree more James.
