Malinformed.

Fox News Channel viewers are malinformed.

PS your thumbnail doesn't appear anywhere in the vid. Siftbot says it must....

Malinfomred. Love it.

The source, for anyone like me who thought it's bad English:

"I just made up a word because I couldn't focus my eyes. AND I LOVE MY NEW WORD. It fits this current political climate we are in. Some folks aren't misinformed. They are MALINFORMED." --Gale, Slog reader

"People who pay attention to Fox News ... aren't just misinformed. They are maliciously misinformed. They are malinformed by malinformers spreading malinformation." --Dan Savage at Slog.>> ^bareboards2:

If that's a rule, then most TYT videos should be removed from the Sift because almost none of their thumbnails are part of the content. The thumbs, FWIW, are somehow encoded in the video itself or are part of the embed when fetched from YouTube. Either way, they're chosen and placed by TYT. Think of them as dust jackets. I'd call that part of the original content. I don't add them later.

If Sifty still thinks that's a violation, then I guess he can go around killing them all. I'm not going to fix them. I've sifted so many.>> ^bareboards2:

I've never noticed that about TYT before. Interesting.

Siftie wouldn't kill the vid, Siftie would take away your ability to fix thumbnails. And since you aren't choosing the thumbnail, then there is no violation.

The rule, I think, is to prevent luring in viewers with a bait and switch. Which I think is why I have never noticed before -- there may have been bait, but there was no switch.

Ahh. Gotcha.

Almost all TYT content is just "talking heads" and the odd graphic, so they use topical thumbnails to make them different and easier to search through.>> ^bareboards2:

Disinformation is not Misinformation.

Everyone knows, facts have a liberal bias.
