Conservatives on Twitter are mocking CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale again, especially since his Twitter bio explains his work as “I fact-check the president. “ Fox News reported on June 16 that Dale hasn't published a fact-check of President Biden since March 30, and that was only online, not on TV. “Since that time, though, his database shows 21 bylined stories or on-air appearances that fact-checked claims made by Republicans, most of them by Trump.”

One of the reasons you can laugh at the phrase "independent fact-checkers" is the obvious tilt in targeting. CNN may not be paid by the Democrats, but the target list makes it look like they are. CNN's obsession over Trump always prompts the question ‘Who is the president now?’ Because CNN acts like Trump never lost. Joe Biden simply isn't someone powerful enough to evaluate.

Joe Biden can repeatedly suggest the Republicans are pushing “Jim Crow 2.0"– as if they were all segregationists – and Dale and his colleague say nothing. An actress can wisecrack on CBS live coverage of the Tony Awards that Gov. Ron DeSantis is a “Grand Wizard” of the Ku Klux Klan, and nobody objects.

PolitiFact is also an obvious example of tilt. For example, Ted Cruz and Elizabeth Warren were both elected to the Senate in 2012. Through 2016, Cruz was assessed for truth on 114 occasions by PolitiFact, and while he ran for president, Ted Cruz landed on the “False” side of their “Truth-o-Meter” 65 percent of the time.

But Warren at that time? Only four checks, and not a single False.” Amazingly, PolitiFact never evaluated Warren on the “Truth-o-Meter” when she claimed to be part-Cherokee Indian.

Check that number of “false” checks again – Cruz 106, Warren six. Cruz was tagged as a “Pants on Fire” liar 11 times, and Warren – “Fauxcahontas” –  never drew one.

We found that overall, in 2017 and through November 2018, conservatives and Republicans were tagged as “Pants on Fire” liars in 96 articles. Liberals and Democrats? Fifteen. That’s a margin of more than six to one.

Over his first 20 months in office, President Biden had 58 fact-checks, while Biden’s critics were checked 338 times. Overall, there were 5.8 fact-checks of Biden critics for every one of the president.

In an interview with the liberal website The Verge, NBC’s Chuck Todd exemplified the media’s defiance of anyone who dares to assert a liberal bias. “I hear the attacks on fact checkers where they ‘fact-check Republicans six times more than they fact-check Democrats.’ Yeah. Perhaps the Republicans are being factually incorrect more often than the Democrats.”
