On 2/5/2021, Mike Lindell (Mypillow Guy) released a documentary-style video highlighting what he called Absolute Proof of election fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election. This video aired on OANN with a disclaimer stating they do not endorse or reflect the views of Mike Lindell. Below are some fact checks by IFCN fact-checkers. (D. Van Zandt)

Well done. That delusional, willfully-ignorant lunatic was deserving of a special report.
You asshiles are total frauds and leftsust scum
fuck you
Why is each claim false? You have given no information to refute the claims.
To those who claim MBFC is leftist, chew on this:

Please click the links for the fact checks. We are simply directing you to them.
Wow. I am impressed. Everything is stated to be false without a shred of supporting evidence. No shock really with MBFC showing its true side
Mediabiasfactcheck, all that I see here is you saying false false false I thought I was going to see proof positive about something. You have not shown anything other than your opinion as fare as I can see. GOOD GOD will we ever see honest trustworthy statements from any one? What has happened to our country.
Soon My Pillow will be called Dominion Pillow after the lawsuit.
Adding to William’s comment, there are many sources deemed leftist by MediaBiasFactCheck which they also assess as being questionable. Some examples I found fairly quickly:
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/deep-left-field/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/democratic-national-committee-dnc/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/femalista/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/left-action/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/middle-american-democrat-bias-report/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/move-on/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-proud-liberal/
There are also sources they deem right-leaning and have good ratings on factual accuracy, for example:
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/wall-street-journal/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/christianity-today/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/boston-herald/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/reason/
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/real-clear-politics/
It would sure be nice if more people used thought, rather than knee-jerk reactions and gut feelings, to determine truth and accuracy.
William, that’s right, and there are plenty more examples refuting the notion MBFC is left-biased. I posted some of them and my comment is awaiting moderation, but it shows many left-leaning sources they found to be “questionable,” as well as sources on the right they found mostly or highly factual. But that won’t likely change the minds of people like “Anonymous” there, who coined the word “asshiles.” It makes me wonder why they’re even here! If they found this page through a search, their goal apparently wasn’t to learn something about Mike Lindell — otherwise they’d consider what they read before shooting it down. Their goal was just to find support for their preconceived notions.
Your website should be called gaslight.com
I am astounded at the number of posters here who do not have the intelligence to see that MBFC is linking to other fact-checking sites for the false ratings, even AFTER MBFC commented in this thread (unnecessarily for anyone with any sense) to do exactly that. If you wish to see the details of the specific claim, then simply click the link. It isn’t rocket science.
