New Media Bias Chart

[Wintermute]

Have you guys seen this? Thoughts?

 

[Chief]

I prefer Daily Mail showbiz section.

CNN with minimal partisan bias?

 

[Hauler]

Interesting. I'd move CNN over to the hyper-partisan liberal area to parallel FOX.

My local news radio is so hyper-partisan conservative it drives me nuts. I definitely lean that way, but most of the guys they have on there are just ridiculous. I don't find it productive or educational to listen to shit that is so obviously biased.

About 2 or 3 months ago I switched over to NPR. I find they lean a bit left, but it's not so bad that it's intolerable. The programming is solid and it's the best source I've found to introduce arguments from both sides of the spectrum.

I always thought Washington Post, NYT, CNN and the BBC slanted off to the left?

Wikileaks sure exposed that one.

Remember, the graph goes vertically too, between click-baity at the bottom (CNN) to overly complex at the top.

 

[Report]

Editorial section of wsj is extremely far right opinion wise

Other than that, I guess it does fall in mainstream tho even tho I usually think of it as right leaning

 

[Hauler]

the BBC slanted off to the left

This is about media bias, bro. Not your weekend.

 

[Ted Williams' head]

Vox and Slate FOR SURE belong in the hyper-partisan liberal slide, too. Vox is FAR from reputable.

Ah yeah. Then move CNN down as well as over to the left. Fucking hacks.

 

[Too swole to control]

Fyi the NDAA made it 100% legal for the Pentagon and State Department to inject all the fake news stories and propaganda into the media that it wants

The NDAA Legalizes The Use Of Propaganda On The US Public

I did find it funny how hung up the media got on the fake news stories. Oh the ironing.

Yes. The fake news shit is just beginning. Im interested to see where it goes. No one ever mentions the NDAA on tv

The only problem I have with this is that the article was written in 2012. Shouldn't I feel better about everything by now due to misinformation?

If their main objective was to make you feel better then yes. If you had a crazy girlfriend who likes to spend way more money than she has and kill ppl, and you gave her access to inject fake texts and fake emails onto your phone and laptop anytime do you think the end result of that would be you feeling better? The end result would likely be you broke and miserable and blaming someone else

 

[mysticmac]

Lol

 

[Socrates]

It's too off to even discuss. lol at the slate and vox ratings, hahaha.

 

[sparkuri]

I'd put that whole chart in the "optimistic" category.

 

[Lord Vutulaki]

When will you guys learn that left/right wing politics is a massive troll job?

Down here in prison island someone could be anti socialist, anti immigration, pro gay marriage, anti abortion all at the same time.

 

[Ted Williams' head]

Who decides what is fake news/partisan propaganda now a days?

I had a man on this very site tell me an article I posted was "fake news", even though all the data given was correct, simply because it was damaging to his stance on a certain issue.

Slate and the economist in the same bubble??

Gtfo here.

Reuters less reputable than slate??

Writing long winded pieces that get debunked doesn't make you reputable. It makes you a blog needing engagements to meet advertising metrics.

 

[Left Hook Larry]

WaPo with minimal bias is laughable

 

[member 1013]

I breeze through the economist is it reall considered complicated
