So I never got into the George News thing, to be honest, but I read loads of stuff today, so I figured I would take a look into it.

george.news PREVIOUSLY georgenews.org (put in URL address bar, it will redirect you don't worry). If you do a select all text for copy and pasta you will see the words in the bottom left corner "GEORGE NEWS ORG 2021 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED". So I took a chance and tried georgenews.org. It works.

Go put in georgenews.org in wayback machine. https://web.archive.org/web/20190501000000*/georgenews.org
Click 23rd June 2019, (that's the earliest entry).
- They put a 301 redirect on to paper.li see below ....

WHY? Why not redirect to www.george.news ???
-
I am not sure where I am going with this but ....
a) no privacy policy on george.news (that I could easily find). b) no t's and c's / terms of use to easily find. Normally found in the footer at the bottom of the page c) no 'typical' cookie message - I hate them so don't use them, but a major news brand probably should???
I don't believe a genuine news organisation would leave out the above 3 bits of info.
- What is this URL https://paper.li/GEORGE#/ is paper.li loading George news into an <iframe>?
I agree. With all the money they have poured in they could easily build a legit website. Now they are just capturing important user data for paper.li aka https://finity.ai/ who states that they analyze 500 millions of social media posts per day.

There’s a guy who works at finity named Geremy George Here’s his website > http://www.geremygeorge.com/
the link at paper.li is fucking full of social trackbacks, not one is missing, as the last George url i saw, that looks to suspect, you would tend to leave people in anonymity, not to track the hell out of them
Always the fact that they stream via youtube and don't get censored, highly possibly that is just a lurker taking donations and ads
There’s a guy named Geremy George who works at finity which appears to be the parent company of paper.li https://finity.ai/about-us/
This guy has a creepy website worth looking at http://www.geremygeorge.com/ His LinkedIn account https://www.linkedin.com/in/geremy-george-5a5787171/
How much more time are we going to spend on this shit?
Whatever is necessary so George can go back to the fringes, and not continue infecting this board by preying on the desperate and uninformed.
You don’t have to watch, but this is more legitimate inquiry than has occurred around here in a while. It’s a good thing.
Thank you. Well said.
They’ve been banned from the site, I think that’s a clear determination.
Send the David Icke type and the "Jesuit Boogeyman" type with them, please.
Simple: Answers.
We cannot simply grunt, "Georgie bad!" Without our weight behind it.
We are not Reddit.
is george news legit?
There’s more information out on this matter today than there has been before, so you can make that decision for yourself... and certainly alter your opinion if new information comes in.
My own take: “legit” is not the criterion on which this at site should be judged. It’s an simply outlet which posts stuff whic to my best understanding isn’t false, and it doesn’t seem to have an overtly malign intent at this point, so it’s not entirely illegitimate.
But George seems to have built much of its fervent following on winking hints and desperate gambits attempting to connect its existence to Donald Trump, his trusted associates, and/or the military. And that appears to not be genuine. Which makes it unquestionably untrustworthy.
