"Fakta-granskande" sida som avfärdat fuskanklagelser i Georgia visar sig vara ett Kina sponsrat inititativ:

Undrar om de vågar köra en "fact check" på den uppgiften?

De sk faktagranskarna "Leadstories" sponras alltså av Facebook och ett kinesiskt företag.
Ytterligare skäl till att ställa sig tveksam till den här verksamheten som uppger sig vara opartisk, framkommer i en granskning av SkyNews som visar hur "Leadstories" och liknande siter certifieras.

EXCLUSIVE: Facebook’s ‘independent’ fact-checking certifier exposed as Hillary Clinton supporter
---
An outspoken Twitter activist critical of Donald Trump who brags about being on “team” Hillary Clinton is the supposedly independent expert in charge of who can become a Facebook fact-checker.
Facebook fact-checkers have extraordinary powers to censor news stories they disagree with, demonetize news organisations and ban news outlets entirely.
The process of becoming a fact-checker is described as “non-partisan” by Facebook but a Sky News Australia investigation has uncovered disturbing evidence of political bias and lack of accountability at the top levels of the certification process.
International Fact-Checking Network certifier and American University School of Communication professor Margot Susca is unashamedly politically biased but she was responsible for issuing 19 fact-check licenses or reviews for organisations to become fact-checkers.
This includes the Associated Press, Check Your Fact, Decrypteurs, Lead Stories, Media Wise and The Dispatch.
Ms Susca has appeared on propaganda network Russia Today to criticise President Trump and has tweeted that it would be a “dereliction of duty” to broadcast his speeches.
In 2019 Ms Susca posted a happy snap with failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton where she admitted “I’ve been on Team Hillary since 08 tbh” and said she was disappointed her likability did not resonate with the public in 2016.
“My boyfriend was her nuclear policy fellow for a year when she was in the Senate,” she wrote.
“Says she’s the smartest, wittiest, most likeable person. It just never came through I guess. So Fucking sad.”
Ms Susca also retweeted content that said: “A projected Joe Biden Win won’t erase the racism shown by Donald Trump and embraced by nearly half of the country’s electorate.”
In one of her several appearances on Russia Today, Ms Susca, admits that she cannot be objective about President Trump.
“It is hard for me to be an objective observer of this presidential administration when for years now they have continuously tried to delegitimise and marginalise news reporters for doing their constitutionally protected job,” Ms Susca said.
However, despite her public political activism Ms Susca holds a key position with the International Fact-Checking Network which allows her to grant fact-checking licenses and audit decisions.

Her ( Ms Susca ) record includes the Associated Press, Check Your Fact, Decrypteurs, Lead Stories, Media Wise, and The Dispatch. The editor-in-chief of Lead Stories—who co-founded the group after ending his 26-year CNN career—just published an expose hellbent on debunking the explosive Georgia ballot-counting revelation video.
Despite her unapologetic public political activism, Susca holds a key "assessor" position with the International Fact-Checking Network. Her role allows her to grant fact-checking licenses and audit decisions.

Leadstories drivs alltså av en gammal avdankad CNN-journalist, och certifieras som opartisk av en vänsterliberal kvinnlig aktivist. Det är inte seriöst, och Leadstories granskningar håller inte heller måttet, vilket bland annat framgått i det sk "suitcasegate" i Georgia.
