United States
• The result of the investigation by the news source "Breitbart":
„Breitbart is a right-wing populist and radical right-wing news and opinion platform in the United States. After in-depth investigations, Breitbart works with many provocative and racist statements, which ultimately led to many scandals and controversies. Many reports were missing, incorrect, or completely misrepresented. Because of this, Breitbart is not considered a random news source and removed.“
