Handling Push Questions

Question

When we run across questions that appear to pushing for a certain answer ether by the way the question was written or the way they attack given answers what is the appropriate close reason for it?

An example of this would be a user asking about a claim made in a video and responding to answers with claims from that video to attempt to discredit that answer. When we run into a question like this where the user appears to be looking for a specific answer what is the appropriate action?

• Flag it for moderator action and explain that it appears to be using the question itself to discredit answers in an attempt to push a specific agenda?
• Flag it was a close vote that is designed for these types of push questions? (I know other sites have close reasons for push type questions)

In cases where it appears that the poster appears to be fishing for a specific answer should we do one/both of the ideas I mentioned or should we do something else?

Answer 1

Well, in this case, the OP has posted this addition:

Edit : Only answers that don't reference papers based on analogous grounds as those that have been fact checked in the video are acceptable. Unless the conclusions and reasoning of the video is disproven.

And my comment to it, together with VTC (for now) is this:

you need to list here the papers from the video you linked to and the grounds on which they have been dismissed in the video. The question needs to be self-contained, here. Don't expect people to watch 13 minutes of rambling to answer your question in the precise way that you hope for.
