One of your very own Trumpsters on here used the site to discredit a news source. The source was only slightly left of centre much like the atlantic. His next post was from Breitbart.

You posted other's opinions of The Atlantic... What is the segment for starters? Not that it matters, because who is to say their knowledge or preconceived bias. Why are you hanging on this like it is telling of anything? Is the Atlantic left leaning? Well yeah, but that is not measurable via whatever nonsense you posted up. I'd even say they are pretty close to center. Why is the left and right so afraid of the other's media sources? Pretty pathetic. I've read quite a few decent to great articles from there. Even Breitbart has one or two good reporters. These sort of polls and opinions on sources like this are for the lowest information voters possible.

No, right in the middle between that and your "Rules for Radicals" and "The Communest Manifesto" is a good spot. Well, let's say a notch closer to "Mein" to be safe. "Look! Look over there!

Dude its a poll. I'm sure it could have some flaws like any poll and Im sure it could be an accurate representation of what people think of the publications leanings. You could ask those same questions on any poll. I've linked atricles from the Atlantic while probably not extreme left they are not exactly center either.

We just need to reel him in. I think he is spending too much time on the phone with Neal. "You hang up first", "No, you hang up first."

Remember, it’s not what I think of them it’s the rating they received on media bias. It was a site Trumpster (Maybe even you ) who show the rating site. So Huff po democrat underground, daily Kos Are as far left and unreliable as breitbart, daily caller and Fox News are far right and unreliable. Both sides leave out facts to alter the story. Abc Atlantic bbc are left- center like Forbes, some sun papers and Wall Street journal are mostly factual but have an agenda and use leading words not outright lies. Right in the middle is a huge list of least biased ones that other than CSPAN, USA today and fact check most of us haven’t heard of. But since Trumpsters dine on a rather unhealthy diet of shit from fox and breitbart, anything truthful looks like left wing propaganda.

That's my point. They are rated the same as The Atlantic. BTW, I don't recall using them and a search of this site verifies that. If I did prior to the sites recent archive it was only to show who they thought was far left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
