Political and corporate elites empower third-party fact-checkers like NewsGuard to censor companies they don't
like-companies like PragerU. Meanwhile, leftist, legacy media companies like the New York Times and NPR get
near-perfect "credibility" ratings.
So, who is behind NewsGuard, and why are they controlling what you can and cannot see?
NewsGuard is partnered with Big Tech companies (like Microsoft), Big Pharma (like the PR firm for
Pfizer-the maker of the COVID vaccine), government agencies (like the Department of Defense), and even national
teachers unions (like the American Federation of Teachers) "to combat disinformation, especially around COVID-19 and elections"
according to the World Economic Forum. So, it's no wonder NewsGuard doesn't want open dialogue about COVID-19 and lockdowns.
They want to stop PragerU from exposing the truth.
Advisors to NewsGuard include former Directors of the CIA and other government agencies. Their partners, advisors, and
staff overwhelmingly support left-wing causes. So, how can NewsGuard claim to be "independent" and call itself "The Internet Trust
Tool"?
If you've seen any of our videos, you know that PragerU is fiercely committed to the truth. But NewsGuard slapped us with a misinformation label just because they don't want the public to hear what we
have to say.
Here's just one of many examples of how third-party fact-checkers like NewsGuard are hurting organizations like
PragerU, Breitbart, The Daily Wire, and The Babylon Bee: The company that used to
host our videos, JW Player, informed us 18 months ago that they were not willing to work with us anymore. When we asked why, they
said we had been blacklisted by NewsGuard and claimed our content was "misleading." Suddenly, we had to devote considerable time and money to find a
new video host.
Now, NewsGuard is back, threatening to further harm us if we don't comply with their long list of ridiculous
demands.
