Analysis / Bias
In review, GoodGopher is not actually a news source but rather a search engine that only searches specific sources. Virtually every source they search is either a conspiracy, pseudoscience, questionable, or right-biased website. Here is the list of the sites they search:
Not all of these sources are rated by MBFC (we have added them to our pending list), but most of the rated ones are either Conspiracy or Questionable or Extreme Right Biased. This is a search engine for false claims, misinformation, and pseudoscience.
Failed Fact Checks
- Every source listed above is not credible and routinely publishes false information.
Overall, we rate GoodGopher a right-biased conspiracy and pseudoscience website that is not credible in any way. Basically, this search engine is geared toward people who want to filter out reality. (4/11/2017) Updated (D. Van Zandt 08/09/2024)
