Snopes.Com...Problematic or Not?

I have heard of snopes.com before and I do tend to use it. Not for urban legends (though I have seen those there before) but I have used for fact checking articles or when I feel I want a story verified before posting. Snopes has actually been there for quite some time on the internet and thus I feel I can give it a certain level of trust—meaning it has never been wrong for me. I can’t say if it’s been wrong for other people. The layout for Snopes is kind of in two things. Urban Legends and Conspiracies or things like what they call “Fact Checks” and that is usually a news story or something political has come out that needs to be fact checked. The ratings run from “True, Mostly True, Mostly False, and False”.  Much like political fact checking websites when it is a fact check they seem to have everything together and it seems to be correct. They also fact check news stories that come out and gather steam—especially hot button issues such as the Syrian refugee crisis. As far as coming under fire I’m not sure how they have come under fire because I’ve never seen any bias they have. However, I did notice some articles from conservatives….I’ll politely say whining that they have a liberal bias because supposedly since it is a 2 person husband/wife team doing research they can’t possibly be right and that in general they have a liberal bias in their Snopes articles when this is simply not true. The two people aren’t even politically involved in anything.  

In general I don’t find anything wrong with using Snopes to fact check an urban legend, a conspiracy theory or a current event and would trust their site for information.
