    Clemson University linked Dougan to the network of fake news websites last year after one of them was found to share an IP address with other sites he ran, including his personal website.

    He didn’t even try to hide it lol

    Edit: I mis-interpreted the guy’s connection to the websites. I thought he fell for the disinformation, but he helps create it. Traitorous dickbag.

    He literally just, "trust me bro"s NBC lol

    There is no evidence NewsGuard acted in concert with or on behalf of the U.S. government when it investigated Dougan. Asked for proof of such a partnership, Dougan sent a link to his own video, a 31-minute monologue laden with conspiracy theories. He’d reposted it to YouTube.
