1. "Snopes Fact Checks Babylon Beeās Story About CNN Offering Jussie Smollett a Job
āThe network, according to the Babylon Bee, was reportedly impressed with Smollettās ability to fabricate a story out of thin airā
The Babylon Bee is a well-known satire site and yet, Snopes fact-checked one of their recent posts. They may as well fact check The Onion.
In any case, The Babylon Bee poked fun at both CNN and Jussie Smollett (the actor recently embroiled in an alleged hate crime hoax) in a satirical piece suggesting CNN offered Smollett a job.
Though Snopes acknowledged the Bee is a satire site, they fact-checked anyway:
On 18 February 2019, the Babylon Bee website added their own fictional twist to this story when they published an article reporting that Smollett had been offered a job at the CNN.
The network, according to the Babylon Bee, was reportedly impressed with Smollettās ability to fabricate a story out of thin air:
While Empire actor Jussie Smollett has been having a tough week so far, there appears to be a silver lining: cable news channel CNN has offered Smollett a job as an investigative reporter and on-air anchor after witnessing his skills at fabricating a story entirely out of thin air.
CNN producers were reportedly impressed throughout the ongoing saga of Smollettās apparent hoax attack on himself. They realized early on the facts didnāt add up but were fascinated with how well the actor kept the narrative going. An HR rep quickly reached out to Smollett to see if heād be interested in taking on a position at the news organization after news broke that the entire thing was probably fabricated.
This was not a genuine news story, although some readers mistook it for such. The Babylon Bee is a satirical website whose disclaimer notes that āThe Babylon Bee is Your Trusted Source For Christian News Satire.ā

2. "Snopes Rates Babylon Bee World's Most Accurate News Source
U.S.āAs part of a detailed review of prominent online news outlets, a large team of fact-checkers at Snopes.com unanimously voted The Babylon Bee as the worldās most accurate news source, Snopes editors revealed Friday.
After reviewing over 1,200 of the Beeās articles, opinion pieces, and exclusive news stories published over the siteās eighteen months of existence, the Snopes team all agreed that the Bee was āfar more accurateā than competing news sources.
āItās not even close,ā Snopes writer Kim LaCapria wrote as part of the announcement. āWhereas sites like CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC are constantly dropping the ball, The Babylon Bee has never gotten a single fact wrong.ā
āThey are the one true news source, the pinnacle of trustworthy journalism,ā she added reverently.
The team of editors on the review panel stated that the key factor in the decision was the Beeās relentless, fact-based coverage of stories like Steven Furtickās recent multi-million dollar contract with Lakewood Church, Benny Hinnās troubles with the IRS, and exclusive scoops on Joel Osteenās ongoing wacky antics.
āTheir stories are just too good to be made-up. Theyāre excellent,ā another Snopes writer said.
At publishing time, sources had confirmed that several Bee writers had been shortlisted for a Pulitzer Prize."
