Embols recently wound up on a list by an Assistant Professor of Communications and Media. However, this list has been widely circulated and criticized for liberal bias. Embols is a news reporting site that takes information from other sources and repackages it. In reviewing this site we found one article that sourced a fake story from a conspiracy site. Most others were just poorly sourced. (D. Van Zandt 11/17/2016)
