<<< "It looks good. Why, they even debunk the myth that Snopes.com is run by an extreme liberal." >>>

Well of course you'd find them to your liking.

It probably took you all of 5 minutes to form your faulty opinion too.*

In reality, you most likely never heard of truthorfiction.com before it was posted here today. You went there & after a brief search found an OPINION piece that told you what you wanted to hear**. In typical liberal fashion you didn't do to do any real independent research of your own. Instead you allowed one favorable OPINION from a source unknown to you to become your version of the truth forever more.

Bye the way, no one here called the Snopes leadership an "extreme liberal" or "flaming liberals" "in the tank for Obama" that this OPINION piece addresses. I simply stated that I found the Snopes leader [didn't know it was two] was a dyed in the wool liberal who reflected his bias in Urban Legend investigations into the political arena. I also said I found them to be reliable on everything else. I based my opinion on years of first hand research.

That's a huge difference from the OPINION piece from truthorfiction.com. The OPINION piece you cited flatly states it is their PERSPECTIVE that Snopes is an authoritative source for information about urban legends and forwarded emails. And truthorfiction cites ZERO examples & ZERO facts to back up their OPINION.

* truthorfiction DID NOT "debunk the myth that Snopes.com is run by an extreme liberal". The OPINION piece you cited NEVER addresses the political leanings of the leadership at Snopes.com. Not one fact or any credible evidence is provided to support your reality defying opinion.

** Had they said the exact opposite you wouldn't have changed your opinion about Snopes. And you wouldn't have posted it on this thread either.
