I fell out with Snopes about five years ago when they took the side of pharmaceutical and tobacco companies in the ecigarette debate. At the time, I believed that Snopes simply took money to make detrimental claims against the vaping industry. This article and subsequently checking Snopes for their opinions on fake news about vaping, has made me change my mind. Apparently, Snopes really is trying to get things right. I suppose I need to check out Wikipedia, too, since their article at the same time looked as if it had been written by someone who was anti-vaping. Who knows, I might start donating to Wikipedia again, but I doubt it.
