Politifact Texas also contacted the Patrick campaign this spring to challenge Lt.
Governor Patrick’s statement that he “stood up to President Obama when he refused
to support our police.” Ironically, the Lt. Governor’s challenge to the former
president was reported in the press by the same reporter who writes Politifact
Texas.
Politifact Texas famously discredited the infamous Texas Association of Business
study declaring that Texas would suffer irreversible economic harm if the state
mandated separate restrooms for men and women. It was notable that Politifact
Texas waited 52 days before they issued their “fact check” of the TAB’s “report”
allowing the phony” study” to be repeatedly reported across Texas and nationally.
Politifact Texas has yet to “fact-check” statements by anti-privacy advocates in
Houston who predicted that the rejection of open bathroom ordinances there would
lead to economic ruin for the city.
Our catalog of similar dishonest tactics by Politifact Texas is extensive and
demonstrates the worst of Texas journalism. Our verdict, the screaming, left-wing
HAIR ON FIRE Award goes to Politifact Texas.
