Ground News has its flaws. Don't let yourself be misled.



This American Thinker article is characterized on Ground News as "Far Right", and "low factuality". I would do a screenshot to show it in case that is taken down by Ground News in order to hide that fact.

The American Thinker article has a lengthy quote from the person mentioned in said article, which seems as factual as it gets. Furthermore, the said article also displays her bio, which would seem to be factual as well, unless it was fabricated. Note that the reason why it is "low factuality" on Ground News is not given on Ground News.

There may be some opinion mixed in with the said article, but it seems a reasonable conclusion from what is said. To have this taught in American schools seems nutty to me. To teach what she says is like funding your own homicide. Yep, it is like hiring someone to kill yourself because you won't commit suicide yourself. Now that is my opinion of what I just read, and anybody can call my opinion low factuality. But it is based upon high factuality and my own opinion of it. The same may be said of the said opinion article from American Thinker. The article was authored by Andrea Widburg.

Are "opinions" rated "left" or "right", and are the ratings based upon some objective standard? Opinions should be free ranging as possible. Whereas facts are either true or false, and if they are false, then they aren't facts.
