Snopes analyzed an article from April of 2015 claiming that Rockefeller successfully underwent his 6th heart transplant. This has been claimed as false. The original article for this came from a publication called World News Daily Report who claims to be an “American Jewish Zionist newspaper based in Tel Aviv.”
The source for the original 7th heart transplant article, which was published August 24th of this year, has been traced back to a publication called Scorched Earth News, who claims to provide “breaking news from the top journalists.” The article then began to circulate the Anonymous wires after being published at Anonymous.com.
The issue has since raised the question of Snopes accuracy in the online community once again as many citizens believe Snopes is used as a government tool to counter conspiracy theories that may actually hold fact. One such example is an article Snopes published titled “Hunt the Boeing!” in which they claim the idea that the Pentagon was damaged by anything other than a Boeing 757 on 9/11 is false. Considering the discrepancies in the government’s official reports, as well as the attention that is picking up steam in the science community regarding the total collapse of the WTC towers, many consider Snopes’ article on the issue suspiciously presumptuous and quick to jump to a conclusion, and in fact, those at 9/11review.org have called Snopes out on it.
In the case of the recent viral Rockefeller-heart-transplant story; within the alternative-news-media, the source “World News Daily Report” has been confused with “World Net Daily” which actually is a reputable source. Disclaimers and updates are now being made.
Snopes (whether you choose to trust their accuracy or not) has yet to release an article on this recent viral story, however despite many citizens insistence on believing in its accuracy, chances are its false. Readers will have to judge for themselves whether they value Snopes’ accuracy above the accuracy of a publication calling itself a “Zionist newspaper,” and that has a reputation of publishing satire. Considering how well David Rockefeller hides his medical history, there’s probably no way to truly verify either way, and no leak sources have been identified.
