Yup. The PTB must be somewhat worried to push these sort of sites and polls. Frankly, I think the voting is probably fixed and not a representation of an actual outcome. But I voted anyways.
Lately, I've encountered more than a few people who have become skeptical about major media outlets, be they social or news-related. They are curious as to why certain sites are considered untrustworthy by Google, Facebook, Twitter and established news organizations when these same companies have knowingly pushed false info or purposefully hid comments and results to further an agenda that benefits elites. Some have admitted checking out the so-called fake news sites and found the info more interesting and truthful than what they are fed in the mainstream.

Only the infamous biggest +200 websites that are a threat to their media monopoly. Though some websites seem to be added just to smear the crowd. Like some whitepower websites and the likes.
One of their partner websites gives advice at how to free yourself from Russian fake news:
For example.
There is also a kind of Dutch variant of this website, I learned that in the Netherlands children these days at school learn (indoctrinated) to only trust official known mainstream sources. And disregard all the others. They even have tests for that.

I was thinking that making a counterpart where only the mainstream media outlets are on it could be fun. That I reckon, will gain a lot of traffic. And a lot of negative votes and positive attention.
It's the kind of climate you want to create to bury them in.
There isn't much text on their website, this is basically it:
Instead for the counterpart:
But I don't know if that would take a lot of work? And if this is a good idea in the first place.
Please deactivate that link to propornot by prefixing it with an underscore. It's definitely a toxic website!bjorn said:
Just to be clear, the propornot website apparently was created by nasty Ukrainian neo-nazi cyberactivist hackers, the same berserkers loosely associated with the CIA who produced the "peacemaker" website, which attacks independent journalists and activists opposed to the Kiev regime. They have a record of pursuing and publishing information about the addresses of their targets, including at least one (Oles Buzina) who was assassinated, shot dead outside his home.

Haha and I was just going to vote too! Well perhaps we can do as Laura suggested and create a site to vote down untrusted sites. Especially after reading about the failed financial psychopath saying not enough people fighting back! Was good to get insider corroboration but sad too for humanity. Finally something I could send to my daughters though.

That was my idea, thinking about it more, it could be pretty risky. Since they got an army of snake suit lawyer and unlimited funds to sue people who defame them. Even if you could technically win it, it will result in a lot of energy being spend that could perhaps be better channeled otherwise.
But I like the idea, because the real fakenews media outlets will hate it. Whenever they are angry, something good must have happened.

Just voted a ten of course! 
I think it is fascinating that according to this site's audience demographic sources, the SOTT audience has very high education levels with the majority college educated and many at the graduate level.
And, our audience has a very high maturity level with most over 35. So let me get this straight--SOTT news has a mature, highly educated audience who keeps coming back to read "fake news"?
