DO "R" VOTERS EVEN THINK OR RESEARCH BEFORE BELIEVING AN UNEDUCATED CLOWN?

 FROM MEIDASTOUCH NETWORK, RON FILIPKOWSKI:

… “Christian Conservative” talk show host Steve Deace had this to say about Dr. Deborah Birx: “She should be marched before a tribunal and put on trial for crimes against humanity, with the ultimate penalty if she’s found guilty to be hung by her bedazzled scarf Nuremberg-style.”

WHO WATCHES THESE UNEDUCATED MISFITS? DO THEY EVEN REVIEW THIS

Funded by / Ownership

Blaze Media LLC owns The Blaze, founded by Glenn Beck in 2010 and merged with CRTV in 2018 to expand its conservative media reach. Revenue is primarily generated through advertising, video content, and paid subscription services.

Analysis / Bias

In review, The Blaze reports news with a far-right bias that utilizes strong loaded words such as New Jersey Democrats propose a gerrymandering plan that would give them a permanent majority. This story is sourced correctly from mainstream media outlets. Story selection almost always favors the right on The Blaze, and there is a heavy Christian bias. Again, The Blaze typically sources information appropriately but is selective in the stories they run and how they are presented to favor the right.

A 2014 Pew Research Survey found that 7% of The Blaze’s audience is consistently or mostly liberal, 8% Mixed, and 85% always or mostly conservative. This indicates that a more conservative audience strongly prefers them.

During the 2020 Presidential election, The Blaze advanced conspiracy theories related to election fraud. Further, during the Covid-19 pandemic, they have made inaccurate claims. See Fact Checks below. In 2022, The Blaze continues to promote misinformation regarding Covid-19 and often promotes religious pseudoscience.

Failed Fact Checks

• [O]ne of the previously fastest shrinking glaciers in the world is growing again, calling into question the narrative that rapid climate change […] poses a significant threat to the existence of the human race – False
• A high school in Tempe, Arizona, banned patriotic apparel and Trump shirts from a football game. – False
• The girl was flown to a military hospital where physicians found DNA from 30 men inside her young body. – False
• “Pro-mask study withdrawn after the virus spread in counties analyzed by researchers”; “masks don’t work” – Incorrect
• “1,000+ mail-in-ballots found in a dumpster in California.” – False
• Pennsylvania rejected 372,000 mail-in ballots – False
• Sweden obliterates the lie of ‘vaccines’ as ticket to ending pandemic” mass vaccination create vaccine-mediated viral enhancement – Inaccurate
• A preprint of an ivermectin study in the Brazilian city of Itajaí found that prophylactic ivermectin reduced COVID-19 hospitalization and mortality by half. – Unsupported
•  “Scottish data shows that the Covid-19 age-standardized case rate is highest among the two-dose vaccinated and lowest among unvaccinated! It further shows this trend of negative efficacy for the double-vaccinated persisting for hospitalizations and deaths.” – False
• “Ivermectin reduces COVID death risk by 92%, peer-reviewed study finds”; NIH now lists ivermectin as COVID-19 therapy. – Misleading

Overall, we rate The Blaze strongly Right Biased and Questionable based on the promotion of conspiracy theories and numerous failed fact checks.  (7/19/2016) Updated (D. Van Zandt 12/20/2024)
