(7,808 posts)59. Here Are Some Indications of a Fake News Website
When I checked the site out on these sites:
https://who.is
https://www.whois.net/default.aspx
and put the URL into the search box, the result was that the owner's name is hidden.
Also, check out the header and footer. There is nothing saying who is in charge of the place, reporters' histories, or any info except the copyright character and The Washington Polity. Looking that website up gives you a website that looks the same (and has a story about Senator All [sic] Franken).
A legitimate website gives the viewer information about itself and who is responsible for content. The only time their stories are referenced is by other unreliable sites.

He needs to grow the fuck up! First of all, it is a private affair, not a state affair.
