Too Little Too Late



Too Little Too Late


The platform Politifact is a prominent source of fact-checking for politicians and media outlets. Every year they rank false claims made by individuals or groups and pick 'lie of the year.' For the year 2018, Politifact chose the Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school students as crisis actors as the lie of the year. After the school shooting, many conspiracy theorists were making the false claim  "that student leader David Hogg and the other students were “crisis actors” and not actually students from the school." This direct contradiction to the conspiracy theorist aims to undermine their message and anyone that may support it.
