    Reasoning: Conspiracies, Misleading/Unproven Information, Lack of Transparency
    Bias Rating: EXTREME RIGHT
    Factual Reporting: LOW

    Launched in March 2019, Summit News is a far-right conspiracy website. Like most questionable sources this website does not have an about page nor disclosure of ownership. The primary writer appears to be Paul Joseph Watson, who is a former editor for the conspiracy website Infowars. Although not disclosed, Paul Joseph Watson appears to be the owner and editor of this website. Further, Summit News has been banned on Facebook.

      I think it makes sense to notify @sp00ky that the topic was removed because of a problematic source. This can be a classic "broken clock" case: a broken clock shows the right time twice a day....
