Analysis / Bias
In review, Red People is a typical extreme right fake news website from Macedonia. A sample article reads like this: “Massive Muslim Terror Network just Discovered in Chicago after Cops get Clue about what they were Hiding.” This story then sources another questionable website called the Conservative Daily Post, which does not even mention a terror network. The whole story is about a Muslim business owner who was selling cigarettes illegally and then Red People giving the opinion that he is funneling money to terrorist groups without evidence. This is a fake news website with virtually every article favoring President Trump.
Overall, we rate Red People Questionable based on the publication of extreme right fake news. (4/12/2017) Updated (D. Van Zandt 9/8/2018)
