Which LW news, specifically? WaPo is only slightly left of center. Are they biased? Sure. But a lot of things they report that the right whines about as "so biased and manipulative" is in fact spot on, the right wing just doesn't like hearing it. And since they don't like hearing it they scream "fake news" and whine that it's manipulative when they aren't nearly as much the problem as the right is.

I am a center left independent (not right wing) who stopped reading WaPo halfway through the Trump administration. Too many click-baity headlines. Now I primarily read WSJ and the economist. I don't disagree with your point that they arent as manipulative as most of the right wing new sources; however, it is no longer regularly providing points of view that I value in news sources.

So you are cherry picking. You don't like those points of view, so you go somewhere that reinforces your point of view.

No one is interested in facts anymore. Just having their own beliefs parroted back to them.

ummmm, bet you doing the same thing.

DP: i am with previous PP. The WSJ and the Economist are much more objective and diverse than WaPo. Try them for a couple weeks, you'll see.

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) on Fox News’s Jesse Watters: "Watters is a tool, making millions to push conspiracies on tv and bash veterans like me who are barely a fraction of his net worth. Wake up America. The political entertainment industry is almost always lying to you."

Yeah, no shit Dan. What do you think FOX News has been doing for the entire last 25 years?

“There’s going to be certain media against you, obviously ... He’s got basically a Praetorian guard of the conservative media — Fox News, the websites, all this stuff. They just don’t hold him accountable because they’re worried about losing viewers, and they don’t want to have the ratings go down.”

Let's hope the American people have learned by now that the Fox News and MSNBC garbage is intended for entertainment purposes only. People like Sean Hannity and Chris Hayes aren't paid gazillions of dollars to give you the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Most of us know this. I think.

More importantly they are both fact based. The previous poster is showing their own ignorance by claiming that people who read the WSJ and Economist don’t care about facts.

It’s really a shame that some of you have the reflex that have to start screaming about “both sides” when both sides are nothing alike.
