There's a whole lot of other sites, including healthranger.com. Many are centered on creating scandalous "news" stories and promoting snake oil supplements.

Thanks @ciolt, found as many more as I could from some of the Privacy Policy boilerplate, I'm sure there are plenty more out there though.

To spread a little hmm

I was skimming the PR and found abortions.news which was added, as abortion tent to give fire in the US i took a skimming of the site.

NOTE Haven't read any articles in depth, but it look like they are having a political agenda, rather than spreading false news.

And if a political stand and spread of political word should be based on faq's, how come that electrical car pollutes less than petrol or diesel driven cars? and how did trump end up in the little white house?

What I'm trying to say here, is that I have a hinge of this is a political censorship of those with a different mind rather than actually blocking real fake news

I suggest that this submission would be looked over again of those who endorse democracy and freedom of speech.

Just my 2cents

@spirillen The site is fake news. Usually sites like these disguise themselves as “conservative” and “pro-free speech”, but they fit the definition of misinforming with false claims.

Articles like “Planned Parenthood paid for prostitutes for its staffers and big donors” is not true. The site is run by Truth Publishing, an ironic name for a company that specializes in deliberately spreading lies.

If you want REAL news that's right-leaning/conservative, there's always Fox News, Reason, and others. These aren't fake news, because they report true stories & do not focus on creating scandalous articles for clicks & attention.
