I have a friend that reckons he'll discern the truth by 'triangulating his way' around inside the box defined by main-stream media.

I use Youtube to follow (among others) Tim Pool and let him sort it out. He posts once a day on current events and he's really rigorous in parsing out the day's news stories. This one is a good example, because at 4:21-6:00 you find out why you'd have to be cra-cra to let Snopes have it's hands on the levers of society's fact-checking.



In the Alex Jones Folk Cover Song Contest, the winner was a rap version that's pretty well paced, but I like the smooth jazz version and Sgt.Pepe's Spicy Meme Club's rendition.
