When did they report Hunter Biden's laptop?

Wapo still has not reported on the mess in Loudoun County Schools and the cover up of a sexual assault. Instead they made the victim's dad into a "domestic terrorist."


Washington Post has always been abysmal with local stories. It has nothing to do with being left or right leaning. Many don’t even think Loudoun is close enough to Washington to be considered local news.

After following how the NYTimes treated Andrew Yang it is very clear to me they are not a neutral party.

They are establishment Dem.

This New York Times front page particle on McAuliffe-Youngkin quotes five Republicans and one Democrat. Why?

I don’t know, but hopefully you are intelligent enough to know that counting quotes in a single article is not a rigorous methodology for determining the bias of an entire media company.

I can do this all day. What is “straight up left” about this?

It’s beyond obvious. Half the home page on any given day is anti-Republican / pro-liberal propaganda.

This is what I expected. Most RWNJs think that anyone who doesn’t buy into their crazy conspiracies is left wing.

Their corporate dem stance is a far cry from being the far left that they are constantly accused of being, ala Mark Levin constantly whiningly calling them the "New York Slimes" and accusing them of being socialist.

They also never run stories on how 9/11 and the moon landing were faked!

This is no left wing media in this country. Lots of corporate outlets like MSNBC. Those will push “moderate” democrats but nit really left wing or progressives.


OMG.

You realize that is nuts, right?

WaPo isn't "really left or right?"

You lose the center when you can't even pretend to be objective about things.


+100
It's so telling, isn't it? Only on DCUM.

Let's call a spade a spade. If a centrist is dithering between Democrats and actual insurrectionists and one "loses" them because one calls the WaPo neither left nor right, then they weren't really a centrist to begin with.


DP. You really need to come up with a new shtick. There is a vast middle between "Democrats and actual insurrectionists." I suggest you take your hyperbole down a notch or ten and join the real world.

Please explain why this is insane. Just saying the WaPo is left doesn’t make it so. I realize most people on the right think WaPo is leftist, but people on the left think it’s right.


Then you're not just "on the left," you are seriously left-wing. DP.

LEFT-CENTER BIAS
These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.

Overall, we rate The Washington Post Left-Center biased based on editorial positions that moderately favor the left. Due to two failed fact checks, they earn a Mostly Factual rating.

Left. Same as WaPo.

Overall, we rate the New York Times Left-Center biased based on word and story selection that moderately favors the left but highly factual and considered one of the most reliable sources for news information due to proper sourcing and well-respected journalists/editors. The failed fact checks that occurred were on Op-Ed’s and not straight news reporting.

Those are not right-wing. National Review is right-wing as is WSJ.

Dominion will own OANN and Newsmax in a few years.


Interestingly, the only people I know who ever watch OANN or Newsmax are liberals. Then they come here and report breathlessly on it.
