From Politifact that named "Lie of the Year" to "Republicans who voted to end Medicare" comes this gem from the article:
"• They used harsh terms such as "end" and "kill" when the program would still exist, although in a privatized system."
Medicare is not a privatized, for profit system that payees have to qualify for. Perhaps Poltifact should be relegated to being a shill for conservative talking points.
It is time to simply tell media outlets that use Politifact to stop using their conservatively biased "fact checking" as being objective.
