Analysis / Bias
In review, SGT Report is a conspiracy website that primarily reports on the impending meltdown of the economy and the end of the US Dollar as the world’s reserve currency. SGT Report also covers politics with a far-right bias that always favors the right and is typically conspiratorial. For example, Donna Brazile and DC Mayor at Hospital With Seth Rich? The source for this story is the Official Hagmann Report, which appears to be an unknown conspiracy-based YouTube Channel.
Besides foretelling impending economic doom, this site also promotes the New World Order conspiracy theory: THE VATICAN NWO AGENDA & PROPHECY EXPOSED. Finally, during the Covid-19 pandemic, SGT Report frequently promoted disinformation and propaganda regarding the Covid vaccines (see failed fact checks.)
