Ben Swan of Truth in Media reports the fact-checker Facebook hired had HUGE conflict of interest when she told everyone that the Wuhan lab was not the source of the coronavirus outbreak. Swan found evidence the “fact-checker” worked in that lab for two years.
When Facebook users begin posting reports from conservative or right learning sources that COVID-19 leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Facebook added this warning:
False Information Found in Your Post
Independent fact-checkers at Science Feedback say information in your post is false. …. Facebook works with independent fact-checkers to stop the spread of false news.
The problem is that the fact-checker who marked the Wuhan Lab story as false is far from “independent.” She is Danielle Anderson, who works at Duke University’s NUS Medical School lab in Singapore and had worked at the Wuhan lab for over two years.
Zero Hedge reports, “A quick search of Anderson’s publications reveals no fewer than nine collaborations with Dr. Peng Zhou – a Wuhan scientist experimenting on bat coronavirus.”
It’s obvious Dr. Anderson wanted to defend her former colleagues more than she cared about the truth.
Never mind that The Wall Street Journal revealed April 9 that the coronavirus is “genetically identical to a coronavirus found in a horseshoe bat” collected by scientists from the Institute of Virology in Wuhan.
Facebook’s highly conflicted fact-checker says, post that and you’ll be labeled as spreading false news.
