The Babylon Bee

I have been a paying Subscriber to The Babylon Bee’s website since December (so around 4 months at this point). This app is great. They have a lot of nice content just for the Subscribers making it definitely worth the subscription. Even if you don’t pay to subscribe, the app offers access to their podcast, the headlines (all the way back to 2016 when the site began), and a search function to find specific topics of the articles. Also I will say if you just see the Headlines on social media (or their site, or in the app), you’re definitely missing out on their true brilliance, as almost every Headline has a great satirical news story written. Well worth the time to read each article! Their podcast is great too, and from the app you can adjust the speed, so if you’re like me and prefer to listen to podcasts at increased speed, you can! If you’re a paying subscriber, you will also have access to additional material in the podcast which is right here in the app. Download today! 😄👍 PS “I really miss Adam Ford” 😉

This app used to work, weeks ago. That said, at that point, there were inappropriate ads showing almost constantly — manga/anime characters making out, ads for ‘hot Arab women.’ I’d report them to Google, then get shown the same things over and over again. Within the last few weeks, first the favorites stopped working, then none of the articles would load. I have 100% WiFi and did try it on data. But it just won’t work. I contacted the developer and answered their questions. I hoped that this new update would solve the problem, but it’s worse than before. I can use the website on my browser of my phone. It’s just less convenient. Two stars because the content is great when it works. Minus three because it just doesn’t work anymore and the ads are so inappropriate. (I’m an adult, but I don’t want to see characters making out or half naked people. Show me ads for shoes or a barbecue — something inoffensive I can use.)

Having an old man’s voice read the KJV to me while I fill my Instagram with pictures of mountains and paint splotches that featured random verses out of their context was getting old. Now I can get my spirit fed with Truth and wisdom that is Snopes approved. Why read the scriptures when you can get it from the Bee that covered the story live as it unfolded? Go straight to the first hand witnesses and avoid all the FAKE NEWS that seems to be slipping into the history books (I’m looking at you “The Message” version!) Do yourself a favor and download the app that was forged in the throne room of God. You won’t regret it!

When I visit the Bee I know I’m going to get quality news, not the kind of made up trash you find in the so-called “mainstream media”. Also, it’s refreshing to be able to read stories covering less pressing topics that most people would otherwise ignore, like impeachment inquiries, but also stories that get to the substantive, culturally defining matters that affect us all, like how many minutes a worship pastor can fumble with his cap before getting fired. Babylon Bee is synonymous with quality, and Epstein didn’t kill himself.

This site, The Babylon Bee, is by far the most irresponsible news organization that we’re angry at for being truthful this month. Their biting wit—which is, of course, a hate crime when directed against the left—has confused half-dozens of careless readers into believing that Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib refused to save the Earth “after learning that’s where Israel is,” when everyone knows that they would simply amend any such bill to remove Israel from the Earth entirely. The fact that it is satire, as well as the argument that perhaps any reader believing that CNN has literally purchased an industrial washing machine to spin news may simply be dumb, is not considered valid by us here at Snopes—in fact, we take issue with such insults to our authors and readers. Rest assured that we will be applying the exact same standards to any political parody parody produced by The Onion, just as soon as it is no longer owned by one of Hillary Clinton’s largest donors.
