George Soros has invested tens of millions of dollars in Facebook. And Soros is a financial backer of Media Matters for America, which calls itself a progressive media watchdog group, but in reality is a vicious uber-left smear machine. And this demonstrates Media Matters’ real commitment to “fact-checking” and accuracy: they hire a smear merchant who clearly doesn’t know a thing about actual Nazism to research the “far-right.” Watch for more smears and lies from this egregious organization. It’s remarkable that anyone at all, even on the left, still takes it seriously.
“Can’t make it up: Fact-checker who misidentified ICE agent’s ‘Nazi’ tattoo hired by Media Matters to research alt-right,” Twitchy, July 21, 2018:
Remember last month when blue-check celebrities like actor Ron Perlman smeared as a Nazi a veteran of the Marine Corps and double amputee who now works for ICE as a computer forensics analyst? Why? Because of the Iron Cross tattoo on his arm.
After Perlman and others spread the false claim far and wide, ICE issued a tweet clarifying that the tattoo is a symbol of his platoon in Afghanistan.

Among those giving steam to the idea that ICE had hired a Nazi was former New Yorker fact-checker Talia Lavin, who this week tweeted that she’s found a new gig with Media Matters for America researching right-wing extremist groups. Great hire, guys.
Some personal news: I'm delighted to be joining Media Matters (@mmfa) next week as a researcher on far-right extremism and the alt-right, part of a brand-new team. I'll be working full-time with some of the smartest, most passionate people in media right now and I'm psyched.

Wow.
ICYMI: Media Matters has hired Talia Lavin (@chick_in_kiev) as a "researcher" on "far-right extremism," despite the fact that her only claim to fame here was falsely accusing a disabled war veteran of sporting a Nazi tattoohttps://t.co/wwLOdWIaDm

Jon Levine writes at The Wrap
Media Matters for America has hired Talia Lavin, a former fact checker for The New Yorker, less than a month after she left the magazine over a tweet falsely accusing a disabled ICE employee of having a Nazi tattoo.
The liberal media watchdog group will employ Lavin as a researcher on far-right extremism, she said Friday in a tweet….

I don’t know about depriving that poor dear of a keyboard. Voice recognition software is VASTLY superior to what was available, just a year ago or so.

Her research skills include: browsing the internet, browsing facebook, watching CNN, reading Huffpo articles, reading Salon articles, and attending marches against “hate”.

When Hitler’s henchman Adolf Eichmann arrived in Hungary, to oversee the murder of that country’s Jews, George Soros ended up with a man whose job was confiscating property from the Jewish population. Soros went with him on his rounds.
Soros has repeatedly called 1944 “the best year of his life.”

Soros deserves a bullet in the head. Then again, it may be too humane a death.

They will upgrade them to make them more efficient. No doubt, the EU, UN and their ally, Islam are burning the midnight oil to meet the deadline.

Just throwing this out there, but maybe media matters should start a food and restaurant critic column for Ms. Lavin.

While in college, Talia Lavin was a member of the Moo Moo Moo sorority, and was known to have many affairs with the contents of refrigerators.

..and also with the false allegations about that tattoo she has proven to be the right liar and scum for Media Matters.

If it doesn’t work out for her at the Soros smear-tactic propaganda arm, she can always start a second career as a nutritionist for Weight Watchers.

To paraphrase from “The Nutty Professor”:
Talia Lavin’s butt is so fat, she got more crack than Harlem !!
She’s so fat, when she goes outside with a red shirt on, all the kids in the neighbourhood shout, “Hey, Kool Aid” !
She’s so fat, when they cut her ass open with a pen-knife, it bleeds chocolate milk!

“I’ll be working full-time with some of the smartest, most passionate people in media right now and I’m psyched.”
And she’s including herself in there. Typical arrogant, pretentious libtard c***, who thinks she knows it all, but in reality is a clueless moron.
Send her to boko haram, shipped in a box “do not open until xmas”
