Credibility as news source
From the article about Jeffrey Epstein:

"In 2019, Forbes deleted a 2013 article that called Epstein "one of the largest backers of cutting edge science" after The New York Times revealed its author, Drew Hendricks, had been paid $600 to submit it falsely as his own."

Source: "The positive online notices appeared to have been paid for by Mr. Epstein: A writer employed by his foundation churned out the news releases, and Drew Hendricks, the supposed author of a Forbes story calling Mr. Epstein “one of the largest backers of cutting edge science,” conceded in an interview that he was given $600 to post the pre-written article under his own name. (Forbes removed the piece after The New York Times published its article.)" - from [https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/13/nyregion/jeffrey-epstein-new-york-elite.html Jeffrey Epstein Was a Sex Offender. The Powerful Welcomed Him Anyway.]

The original Forbes story: Science Funder Jeffrey Epstein Launches Radical Emotional Software For The Gaming Industry

If noone objects I will add a section with that info.

Far-left fake news magazine
Forbes is a far-left fake news magazine that denies biological science and common-sense reality and logic: https://www.forbes.com/sites/dawnstaceyennis/2019/12/19/jk-rowling-comes-out-as-a-terf — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poppahick (talk • contribs) 09:12, 30 December 2019 (UTC)


 * You probably won't read this, being a banned sockpuppet and all. But since your trollish comment is still up, I may as well reply for the sake of future visitors. 1: A quick skim through the article on Steve Forbes, the editor-in-chief of this "far-left fake news magazine" shows that he seems pretty right-wing. 2: The only thing inaccurate in that article is the "RF" part of "TERF". 66.210.249.135 (talk) 09:06, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
