#daniel-dale — Public Fediverse posts

All these years later, and Daniel Dale is still fact checking Trump, who lies often enough to make fact-checking him a full time job.

> Fact check: Trump makes numerous false claims at Cabinet meeting

"Trump repeated his false claim that the European Union 'was formed in order to screw the United States'..

"'The President’s claims are preposterous,' said Desmond Dinan, a public policy professor at George Mason University who is an expert in the history of European integration... 'The European Communities (forerunner of the EU) were formed in the 1950s as part of a joint US-Western European plan to stabilize and secure Western Europe and promote prosperity, by means of trade liberalization and economic growth, throughout the shared transatlantic space.'"

#lies #disinformation #DanielDale

Aaaaand the days of fact checking every-blooming-thing come roaring back. Trump's miasma of misinformation is just so draining.

The last time Trump actually heard a crime statistic was thirty years ago.

203) I feel sorry for #DanielDale of CNN he frequently writes and reports on l #Trump’s tormented grasp on reality.

Given the velocity of #BigOrange’s lies and falsehood, Mr Dale’s task is ultimately impossible. Here’s his take on yesterday’s #Ashville speech

@therobburgessshow Since #CNN employs a crack fact-checker, #DanielDale, they could employ him in an actually useful way. They choose not to.

@Wikisteff @MoiraEve. It was a shanda. For some reason, when I read that #DanielDale would be fact checking, I thought it would be in real time. Silly me.

@gemelliz We need a #DanielDale. #CanadianMediaFailsMiserably in its role. It is as useful to Canadians as the #NationalEnquirer would be to a serious investigative reporter. Harper‘s deal with #PostMedia was the beginning of the decline of our #FourthEstate. I trust there are a sufficient number of intelligent Canadians and great thinkers in Canada that can see through the #Con BS. We just have to make sure they vote. #VoterApathy will bring about the end of our democracy.

@gemelliz @Snowshadow @CanadianCrone Where’s #DanielDale when we need him? #MakeCanadaGreatAgainPierre lies:
The Chinese Coverup is a 3-yr-old story that wouldn’t have been possible without #Con commitment to China, Harper’s FIPA. The secrecy shrouding the Foreign Investment Promotion & Protection Agreement with China makes it hard for experts, let alone Cdns, to figure out. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/fipa-agreement-with-china-what-s-really-in-it-for-canada-1.2770159

@gemelliz You are our #DanielDale. #MuchRespect Thank you for posting such invaluable info. Most read the headlines only and our #FourthEstate does not provide factual info to allow readers to reach informed conclusions. Key facts are left out or replaced with innuendo that borders on slander and outright lies. #CdnMediaFailsMiserably

@stevendrowe #donlemon wtaf are you doing? Who are you kidding? Ask #DanielDale if that’s true. Although Daniel Dale is still on the lying POS’s platform also. No one should watch. This is disgusting and I really am having a hard time believing it. What the heck happened to Don Lemon?
