You forgot all the left wing ones. You’d also need to ban MSNBC, Vox, the Huffington Post, Buzz Feed, CNN, Vice, ABC, CBS, The Daily Beast, Salon, Newsweek, The New York Times, Slate, The Washington Post, Politico, NBC, The Atlantic, and dozens more.
Or is this not about misinformation, but rather information you like?
If you think those are leftwing news sources then you probably need to educate yourself a bit more on political ideology.
While true, as long as they spread propaganda they shouldn't be allowed to be linked to.
No matter their political bias.
I based it on this research. You can view their methodology here.
I was responding to their comment about political alignment:
The source has nothing to do with credibility.
Their definition of the "left" section of their spectrum:
Even they recognize that liberal and progressive ideas are separate from leftwing ideas, but for some reason have chosen to lump them into a single group. Likely because there are very few leftwing media outlets and none of them have any real name recognition when compared to CNN, MSNBC, etc.
You underscore an issue with the left-right paradigm. Not all conservatives are the same either, yet people feel quite comfortable putting Daily Wire and Breitbart into the same bucket.
The number of Pulitzers in this comment should be enough to make you realize how dumb it is.
