Readers grateful to find out the truth about Snopes.com

Thank you for John Berlau's revealing article regarding Snopes .com ["Online Rumor Mill Spins Its Own Myth," April 1-8]. As a follower of public affairs, I was delighted to find their Website several months ago. I was surprised to find such a liberal slant in some of their material, but I just took it as a reflection of my right-wing personal agenda.

The Berlau article was backed up by research and investigation that helped clarify my thinking. I no longer will promote the site or link with them, and I will continue to search for the truth. Thanks again for your good work.

INSIGHT published a great article about Snopes.com and its left-leaning agenda. I had never heard of the group until I read this article, but at least now I will know what Snopes .com is all about when I do run across it. I also will be informed enough to let my friends know about this Website if the topic comes up. Thanks for all the great research you did on this news story.
