Snopes wrote their effort to debunk Pizzagate on November 2016. My take on their piece was a pretty important project which has been on my mind for some time, while the Snopes article has been the top 1 search result for "pizzagate" for sevaral months, continuously giving a false impression to the public.

I only needed to go through the first 40 lines of the Snopes article with a professional touch, which was enough to debunk the whole article. Snopes actually even debunked themselves. LOL - My findings on Snopes errors in short:

• Narrowed scope, even that a more complete one was presented by their main source
• Several signals of unprofessionality in the fact checking
• Including controversials (first claiming "none was true", later representing parts most likely to be true)
• Bad use of sources (picking single online username not even checked for reliability)
• Bad use of sources (using biased media and a person in question, Alefantis)
• Bad use of sources (not linking directly to some sources in use)
• Lack of separating Snopes' own opinions from sourced information
• Inaccuracy

By sharing this project you'll help the public to realize how even the number one search result could be totally false information, rising awareness not only for the pizzagate but for some media criticism too. Please use the image above, or find your own ways to spread the awareness.

ps. Feel free to submit any of your findings to /v/pizzagatejournalism/ whenever you need help in fact checking something. I'm not doing the job for you, but I'm willing to help you on that, in purpose to fill the /v/pizzagate sub with checked, reliable submissions helpful for our investigations.
