The story submitted to us for America News Project was this one: Small Indiana Town To Change Name To Avoid Clinton Reference. Their About Us page features a fair bit of cheek: As you likely well know, the National Report and Daily Currant are both satire sites. (If you did not know this, feel free to click those links and…

From Rational Wiki: Educate-yourself (“The Freedom of Knowledge, The Power of Thought ©”) is a green ink website of alternative medicine, pseudoscience, conspiracy theories, UFOs, Sylphs, and every other form of crankery under the sun.

Heavy Caveat: We’re loathed to consider thepeoplesview.net (TPV) “real,” because it’s mostly opinion, but it is a site that makes their opinions based on data they’ve culled. But it makes no attempt to hide its liberal slant. From their About page [emphasis mine]: This blog is devoted to examining issues from a liberal perspective, on factual bases and on fair…
One should never have to consider the truthfulness of an article that comes from a site that bears the moniker Blast Dat Ass, no matter how awesome or funny the name may or may not be. The article that was submitted to us was “You Won’t Believe What Was In Her McDonald’s Mayo.” The source of this article, however, comes…

There is no Wyoming Institute of Technology. Period. There is, however, a much shadier WyoTech, formerly known as Wyoming Technical Institute, which is a for-profit college system founded in Laramie, Wyoming, in 1966. But that is neither here nor there. The image on witscience.org’s About page — — is the same image on www.southdreamz.com page (a self-noted Entertainment blog) —…
Conservative Tribune makes the following claim: [David Boreanaz] broke ranks with the Hollywood elite, and the overwhelming culture of Hollywood, to criticize Pres. Barack Obama. This is the same Pres. Obama that hangs out with celebrities like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and George Clooney, while simultaneously campaigning against rich people. It’s customary to embed tweets when you’re relying on them to push…
The Sword (NSFW) is real, insofar as the current narrative du jour in today’s gay porn is ‘real.’ It’s a porn blog that “reviews” new porn from various studios, including those that focus on the “straight-for-pay” sort of porn. Is that real? Are they really straight? Well . . . that’s likely a matter of opinion. But it’s not something…
New-Bar.hr is a Croatian site. Sorry, we don’t speak the language. If anyone reading speaks the language and can translate some stories or determine if the site is real or satire, please let us know in the comments! Thanks!

@RNCSquirrel is a response-Twitter account that acts as a so-called “frenemy” to @HRCsquirrel, itself an insult-Twitter designed as a pre-backlash maker to the prospect of Hilary R Clinton’s presidential run.
The Atlanta Banana. It’s fake news, y’all. From their About page: Is any of this real? The Atlanta Banana is a grassroots effort to write serious, hard news. Yeah, real hard. So hard it feels like your jeans are going to rip off. So hard if it walked sideways through the library there’d be a hell of a lot of…
Not even sure what the point is for hollywooodreporter.co, or the other sites connected to it. Doesn't matter; it's all fake -- and only barely funny.
The Beehive Bugle’s About Us page should tell it all: Beehive Bugle is a Utah-focused, faith-based initiative, delivering internet-based speculative law and gospel reports since 1897. In our current, corporeal [emphasis theirs, but telling] incarnation, we give you the news you need to know when you need to know it. Then it has this sentence, which is basically a paraphrased…
