3 Video Views·Mar 12, 2025 #facts #education #exposed Have you heard of NewsGuard? Its mission is to “counter misinformation on behalf of readers, brands, and democracies.” In other words, it “guards” the news by telling you what you can and cannot trust. Of course, this begs the question: can you trust NewGuard?

Good news!
Thinking for yourself is no longer necessary.
The new heroes of the Internet will do it for you—companies you’ve never heard of, but who are watching out for your best interests.
Meet one of them.
They call themselves NewsGuard.
A perfect name.
Because that’s what they do.
They “guard” the news.
They make sure you only get the good stuff.
The stuff you can trust.
Best of all, NewsGuard is backed by Big Pharma, Big Tech, the teachers' unions, and even the government.
So, if Newsguard says something isn’t safe to read, you know you should scroll on.
I mean, if you can’t trust the government who can you trust?
Wait … you don’t like what I just described?
Sounds more like a nightmare than the world you want to live in?
You like to do your own thinking?
You’re perfectly capable of figuring out which sources are credible, and which aren’t.
That, you say, is the right and obligation of a free citizen in a free country.
If so, welcome to my world.
I’m the CEO of PragerU.
We’re fighting against companies like NewsGuard every day.
We didn’t pick the fight.
They did.
We have our own take on the events of the day and on the events of yesterday.
We’re happy to have you make your own judgment on whether we’ve got it right or whether we’ve got it wrong.
But there are many organizations that don’t have that attitude.
Like the aforementioned NewsGuard.
Let’s look a little more into this company which, by the way, is a for-profit enterprise. PragerU is a 501c3, a non-profit. We’re big fans of profit. Profit makes the world go round. But if your business is, say, promoting COVID vaccine efficacy, and your biggest client is the public relations firm for Pfizer, it’s fair to ask whether you would be completely unbiased when judging a story questioning the safety of COVID vaccines.
But that doesn’t trouble NewsGuard.
They’re convinced their judgments are free from any taint.
Just ask them.
They’ll tell you.
But who are “they”?
Their co-founder and CEO is a Democratic party loyalist. He’s on record dismissing the Hunter Biden laptop as likely a “hoax . . . maybe even . . . perpetrated by the Russians.” The NewsGuard staff, not surprisingly, is mostly comprised of left-leaning activists and ex-journalists.
And guess who they don’t like?
Yeah, they really don’t like PragerU, The Daily Wire, Breitbart, The Federalist, and other news and opinion sources that are not on the left.
But let’s not be too harsh. If you stray from NewGuard’s way of seeing things, they will give you a chance to redeem yourself.

good news thinking for yourself is no
longer necessary the new Heroes of the
internet will do it for you companies
you've never heard of but who are
watching out for your best interest meet
one of them they call themselves News
Guard a perfect name because that's what
they do they guard the news they make
sure you only get the good stuff the
stuff you can trust best of all News
Guard is backed by big Pharma big Tech
the teachers unions and even the
government so if News Guard says
something isn't safe to read you know
you should scroll on I mean if you can't
trust the government who can you trust
wait you don't like what I just
described sounds more like a nightmare
than the world you want to live in you
like to do your own thinking you're
perfectly capable of figuring out which
sources are credible and which aren't
that you say is the right and obligation
of a free citizen in a free country if
so welcome to my world I'm the CEO of
prageru we're fighting against companies
like newsguard every day we didn't pick
the fight they did we have our own take
on the events of the day and the events
of yesterday we're happy to have you
make your own judgment on whether we've
got it right or whether we've got it
wrong but there are many organizations
that don't have that attitude like the
aforementioned newsguard
let's look a little more into this
company which by the way is a for-profit
Enterprise prageru is a 501c3 a
nonprofit we're big fans of profit
profit makes the world go around but if
your business is say promoting coid
vaccine efficacy and your biggest client
is the public relations firm for fiser
it's fair to ask whether you'd be
completely unbiased when judging a story
questioning the safety of the coid
vaccine
but that doesn't trouble newsguard
they're convinced their judgments are
free of any taint just ask them they'll
tell you but who are they their
co-founder and CEO is a Democratic party
loyalist he's on record dismissing the
hunter Biden laptop is likely a hoax
maybe even perpetrated by the Russians
the News Guard staff not surprisingly is
mostly comprised of left-leaning
activists and ex journalists
and guess who they don't like yeah they
really don't like prageru the daily wire
breitbard the Federalist and other news
and opinion sources that are not on the
left but let's not be too harsh if you
stray from news guard's way of seeing
things they'll give you a chance to
redeem yourself here's how it works out
of the blue they'll send you a list of
accusatory questions on some hot button
issue could be coid global warming or
the world economic forum
if you play their game and respond
they'll ignore your answers and then
pose new questions if you don't respond
well that just confirms news guard's
judgment that you're not a reliable
source heads they win tails you lose if
you fail their test and you will
newsguard informs their clients PR firms
ad agencies major corporations that
you're toxic and that they should run in
the opposite
direction for news and opinion
operations like Breitbart The Daily
Caller or American greatness that live
largely on Advertising that can get very
expensive very fast it might drive you
out of business if you don't comply but
of course that's the plan Mark Hemingway
an editor at the Federalist went through
this Inquisition he callused newsguard
an extortion racket having also live
through this experience I can confirm
that assessment News Guard works in
another in ious way big Tech Titans
don't like taking grief from the public
or from politicians who complain that
their companies are censoring non-left
viewpoints now thanks to newsguard and
Enterprise big Tech funds they have a
place to hide they say we didn't make
any judgments we hired this thirdparty
fact Checker and they told us this story
or that website can't be trusted in
short News Guard enables them to censor
speech without leaving any fingerprints
awesome and now the government has
gotten into the act the defense
department paid newsguard over
$700,000 to monitor misinformation
Trends online which is an orwellian way
of saying information that the defense
department doesn't like same thing for
the teachers unions one of the largest
the American Federation of teachers has
made a deal with newsguard to screen
content that comes into classrooms it's
hard to get more left in the AFT no need
to guess what perspective they're
counting on News Guard to screen out so
if you don't want to think for yourself
anymore News Guard has got you covered
but if you do want to think for yourself
you've been warned if newsguard has red
flagged a source all you need to know is
that the left doesn't want you to read
it watch it or hear it and what does
that make you want to do I'm Marissa
