Gullible@sh.itjust.works 5 weeks agoMany here dislike ground news and media bias check. Dunno about adfontes and the other. In any case, I gave you the answer. You’re welcome to extrapolate from it, but that was all I intended

Do you see how that might be a problem though? This is like arguing with right wingers. “All the news stations are corrupt and nothing can be trusted!”
At some point you guys are just rejecting everything and deciding to only use stuff you like which is precisely what you accuse the right of doing with shit like fox news.

Maybe WaPo used to be left leaning. I don’t think their actions and editorials over the past 6 months support that statement to be true at all. There are fewer and fewer trusted news sources, as they become mouthpieces for billionaire shitheads, if not the fascist leaning current regime. It’s a shame. Also, for what it’s worth, the article is blocked for me too, and I have pretty strong blockers running. I could just get an archive link, but to be honest I can’t be fucked to do so.

I’m a fan of specific, actionable information. I don’t trust wapo due to bezos personally killing stories and advertisements, per his needs as a billionaire. That said, my statements earlier weren’t my opinions, they were my observations of Lemmy’s preferences and reasons. I was just here to offer agnostic information, until you began asking for extrapolation

Please keep in mind that despite being downvoted, you are not alone with your opinion. I for my part find your argument very compelling. So please don’t let yourself be overwhelmed by the echo chamber!

I’m used to it. Lemmy is one hell of an echo chamber too. It’s actually insane hopping on here and reading comments and then going outside and talking to normal fucking people lol.
