Maybe it’s the soy that made ‘em do it?

Joseph Farrar, founder and CEO of WorldNetDaily, is upset with Wikipedia over someone editing his wiki page to state that he was a gay.

His response?  To attack Wikipedia as a “wholesale purveyor of lies and slander unlike any other the world has ever known”.

And it has brought us some perfectly dreadful sources of misinformation.

Wikipedia falls into the latter category. And this column is my latest effort to demonstrate just how abusive this so-called “online collaborative encyclopedia” really is.

It is not only a provider of inaccuracy and bias. It is wholesale purveyor of lies and slander unlike any other the world has ever known.

This from the guy whose site has a series of articles on how soy turns straight men gay.  I say Wikipedia has nothing on WorldNutDaily when it comes to being purveyors of lies and slander. How about you?

    He got that upset over what some kid wrote in a wiki? Methinks he doth protest too much.

    I just read the “soy” article. It made me laugh. If this is true, all Asian men must be gay, yet the population of Asian countries continues to grow. My own (late) father was Asian and I’m pretty sure he was not gay, but I’ll check with my mother and get back to you on that one.

    As for Joseph Farrar, someone probably saw him eating a soy burger.
