Really wonder what a persons political leaning has to do with bad journalism
Everything. Do you believe in "unbiased" reporting?
Didn’t really think that comment through in hindsight; especially considering there’s a lot of politically biased articles are out there.
Although the original comment felt a lot like it was trying to say anything left leaning would be bad journalism, which is a BS way of approaching this kind of problem
I understand what you are saying. I do not think "unbiased" news exists, and outright prefer when the biases of news outlets are presented front and center.
I recommend checking out the YT channel First Thought for important world news. They're really fast on the trigger, and do not hide their leftist bias one bit. "The most biased news show", they call it. I respect it far more than bourgeois outlets owned by literal billionaires peddling propaganda while pretending to be unbiased.
