I'm voting for snopes.
The critic says, "But for several years people tried to find out who exactly was behind snopes.com. Only recently did Wikipedia get to the bottom of it - kinda makes you wonder what they were hiding."
Well, it's not hiding, it is clearly stated on the snopes faq page:
http://www.snopes.com/info/faq.asp
A new issue of Readers Digest also proves that there is no secrecy about the operators of the site:

I think it is also not surprising that the guy blasting snopes doesn't provide a link to the page that he is complaining about.
Here it is, and they do respond to his criticism:

The snopes page has a link to this letter published from State Farm

Sign did not
reflect views of
State Farm Ins.
I would like to respond to the article that appeared in the Teche News regarding the political sign displayed at the Bud Gregg insurance agency.
Mr. Gregg is an independent contractor to State Farm®, and his views do not reflect those of State Farm Insurance Companies. Management requested the sign be removed as soon as its presence became known. It was taken down on July 3. Mr. Gregg’s sign was not endorsed by, nor consistent with State Farm’s corporate practices. The company does not endorse candidates, nor take sides in political campaigns.
At State Farm® we take great pride in providing the best service possible to all of our customers, regardless of their political preferences, and take seriously our responsibility to do so. We appreciate your allowing us the opportunity to respond to this circumstance, and clarify our position. We would also appreciate you allowing your readers to know our side of the issue.
Please feel free to contact me if you should have any additional questions or concerns.
