Why do you think there is so much misinformation spread in politics. Places like Texags, Tiger Droppings, OAN, News Max spread fake news, misleading news, and fake stories. Conspiracy theories tend to be highest in these places, and I was curious if you all had some insight into why that may be.

State your true intentions OP.

You want people to only believe what MSM and big gov tells us and any other independent thinking is labeled as misinformation.

You don't have to agree with the world around you, but it don't make it less real.

If it's not F16, it's all fake news.

Whoa. That took a turn I wasn't expecting.

But to answer the real question: "why does the MSM put out so much misinformation in politics?"

It's because they are 100% committed to liberal causes that lie, cheat, and steal. They are in too deep to turn back now.

In the OP's mind, anything that isn't pure leftist propaganda is considered misinformation, fake news, or a conspiracy theory.

Why you ask?

Because other media outlets are stenographers for DNC.

This rates about a -5 on the Troll-O-Meter.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Multiple reasons:

1) They WANT to believe
2) They want to be the one to break the news first
3) To stir up trouble
4) They are idiots and will believe anything anyone says
