Snopes Declares Story of VA Ban of Iconic V-J Day Photo 'False'

Meme

Snopes is really something else. They, along with the rest of the fact-checkers out there, are supposed to be protecting us from all the disinformation on social media. A day after End Wokeness revealed a memo that called for the photo to be taken down in all Veterans Affairs facilities as it was problematic, seeing as it depicted a non-consensual act. Backlash was so great that Denis McDonough, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, was forced to step in personally to assure people that removing the photo was not VA policy.

So how did Snopes manage to rate this "false"? They're awfully slippery, we'll give them that. They admit the memo was real, but it just "requested" that the photo be removed, and the memo's distribution was "made in error." So, technically, the photo was never "banned" — they just "mistakenly" sent out a memo requesting that it be taken down.

We all saw the memo. And Snopes even admits that "the memo is not, in fact, a fabrication." However … they walked it back before they even had a chance to take the photo down.

Community Notes for the win.

The memo was rescinded before Snopes could even complete its "fact-check." It's amazing how quickly they jumped on this story.
