The Lie-Able Sources Podcast: Defamation, Prisoner Misidentification, and Fact-Check Stagnation

Your source for mainline mainstream media misdeeds and malarkey. 

ABC News has become the focus of the press this week when it was learned the network folded and paid out a $15 million defamation settlement to Donald Trump. The remarkable thing is how different the reaction has been compared to, say, when Fox News settled its case with Dominion Voting Systems. Many other outlets are upset by this, which is a striking difference from the celebratory reactions to the Fox case.

Also garnering attention was CNN staging a dramatic rescue of a prisoner in Syria, and that Pulitzer Prize moment has since blown up in their faces. Also at CNN we see that, with a new election, their fact-checker Daniel Dale has come out of hibernation to see his shadow and begin doing his announced job title.

And on the topic of fact-checks, Politifact has delivered what they believe (or, try to sell) was the Lie Of The Year. Get ready for this - they got it completely wrong, not gonna lie.

Now, crack one open and savor some mainstream media malpractice and misinformation.
