What fact check site do conservatives trust?

I'm not trolling here. I know that they don't like Snopes because, well the Mikkelsons are from California, so they'er obviously liberals.

So, if Snopes is unacceptable and I want to let one of my conservative friends know that no one is putting HIV infected needles in gas pump handles, that it's an old scare going back to when there were pay phones and people supposedly put HIV infected needles in the coin returns, who can I send them to that they will actually trust the source.

    Try first person sources, they are generally correct, sites are not.

    Don’t waste your valuable time. The Trumpkins are very simpleminded. If it criticizes Trump then it’s a fake source. If it strokes Trump’s ego it’s real.

    Uhm, you need to do your research on Snopes, and who runs the joint, before you trust them so much. Just declaring yourself a 'fact check site' doesn't somehow magically make you impartial or unbiased. I tend to think of such sites as tools for lazy people who don't want to read around or put the work into making up their own minds. It won't hurt you to read websites of people you don't agree with politically . . . you should try it sometime.

    They don't trust facts. They also don't want the truth, they want their preconceived notions reinforced.

    It's weird, right? A while ago someone was talking about unreliable Snopes was and I kept asking them for the snopes article that was wrong and they just kept deflecting telling me to Google it or something. I did Google it. Never found it. I suspect they'd even be against Politifact and would only trust Fox News or something.

    They only trust Fox News, Breitbart, and Infowars. Good luck trying to get through to them with facts.
