because he holds public office and is posting pictures of children to porn sites and stalking local women? Do you not think public officials should have their disgusting misdeeds documented?
I think it's worthwhile to question an unknown outlet. If it's a tabloid level rag then perhaps I should doubt the pilling on, if any of the smear worthy stuff might be fabricated.
No matter the outlet, if the material is accurate, then yes it's reasonable. However we always have to be wary of folks outright making up stuff.
You think this random conservative blog decided to write a whole fake erotic fan fiction? Which parts are you claiming to be false, they provide a lot of evidence.
I'm not claiming it to be true or false, just saying I understand why someone might sincerely ask for folks to share anything they might know about the outlet in general.
However, the stance of "well, you better have a lot of evidence to be skeptical of a random unkown outlet" seems to be setting oneself up to be a sucker to anyone from any side.
I think the issue is that the question doesn't appear to have been asked earnestly. Preemptively answering your own question with "sounds like activism" communicates you have already formed an opinion. If you're asking out of genuine interest, check your preconceived notions at the door and only ask the question. Just "what is this 1819 site? Are they known to be a reputable source and do they demonstrate bias?" Is a good way to ask it.
I didn't say it was child porn. Also there are archives out there of his accounts where he posted these pictures. But sure you can cover your ears and run away if you want.

article doesn't say anything about child porn. I'm thinking it's a bullshit conservative "news" site muddying the waters.
