Popular satirical website The Babylon Bee accused The New York Times of "trafficking in misinformation" after the Gray Lady reported the site publishes false information "under the guise of satire" when the site openly admits that it’s satire.
The Times made the claims in a feature, "For Political Cartoonists, the Irony Was That Facebook Didn’t Recognize Irony," that was published on Friday. The report detailed how Facebook has had trouble identifying satire when policing its site for frowned-upon political content.
