Site that tracks errors, lies and inaccuracies for Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc

[GWestphal]

I'm wondering if there is a site that tracks the errors, so I could go make counts of what all the errors are over the last 10 years.

You should start one. That would probably be revolutionary.

 

[Greenman]

And the site that tracks the errors will most likely lean left or right, so as to promote whatever agenda they have.

The Daily Show does a decent job, but makes no claims as to being totally comprehensive.

 

[Genx87]

Not sure we have enough compute and disc capacity to keep up.

R or L it shouldn't be hard to chronicle a lie

Well you can take Fox off the list.

100% is lies so no need to track.

If you made such a site, both sides will be claiming you're biased every time you didn't point out something that was partially true, but overall not completely truthful for the other side.

Just calculate how many words have been broadcast over the last ten years, and then get the average sentence length and viola.

This should be no problem. When Mulla Nasrudin was a judge he had a case where Enan's ear had been bitten. He claimed that Ansar did it but Ansar said Enan bit it himself. So the Mulla retired to his chambers and attempted to bite his ear and each time he fell over on his head. He came back and demanded the plaintiff have the back of his head examined for bruises. He proclaimed, if the back of his head is bruised he bit his own ear and if not that Ansar is guilty.

Beyond that, I'm not even sure what the point would be. If Fox News runs with Benghazi to the exclusion of almost any other news, that to me is just as biased and misleading as them reporting false facts.

Facts have a liberal bias so it will lean left by default

I'm actually working on a startup that roughly approaches this. Hope to have a public beta up for March/April of the coming year.

Not being biased but the Presidential debates clearly show the right lacks the ability to be self reflective.

The left had no problem saying their guy sucked after the first debate. Didn't blame the media or moderator. The right went into total denial on all Romney shortcomings.

This has been established by scientists. It's a brain defect. But they are touchy enough about it to even discount the science just as science predicted. Conservatives are halarious even thought they don't mean to be.

The brain can't heal itself, braincells do not reproduce. How does someone going from the Republican party to the Democrat party repair this defect?

See how your science falls apart under a little scrutiny?

The moderator wasn't debating the Republican Candidate in the first debate. The first debate was a clear ass beating. The second and third debates went to Obama slightly but going by the Left they though it was a complete reversal.

The second debate went slightly Obama. The third debate was a clear shellacking of Romney by Obama. By the end of the third debate Romney had done almost nothing but agree with Obama and what he's done that you'd think Romney was intending to vote for Obama. Debate one and debate three were complete roll reversals. Romney lost the third debate as badly as Obama lost the first.

but think of the hits from all the fundies from both parties. Should be able to make an absolute killing from the ad revenue.

Then we have to make a site that tracks errors of the new site that tracks errors that is leaning left or right.

It is an endless cycle, and we have to start somewhere!!!

Great site which chronicles all the lies in the Rightwing talking points in a one stop shop!

Indeed I do. It falls apart the moment you try to use it.

This is no longer an accurate view. The brain can heal and can grow cells.
