Analysis / Bias

In review, Need to Know covers a wide range of debunked conspiracies such as false flag operations being routinely conducted and anti-vaccine propaganda. Most stories come from other non-credible conspiracies/pseudoscience sources such as Zerohedge, Infowars, Gateway Pundit, and Natural News.



Need to Know also presents news with an alt-right bias, such as anti-immigration stories and negative portrayal of minorities and Muslims.
