I don't think you can even discuss the placement meaningfully because the framework is such a mess. But also, if you accept the possibility that there is truth and right and wrong answers on specific controversies, you see that the very idea that "bias" can be determined by political alignment is wrong. Bias should be measured by where an outlet differs from reality rather than where it differs from the political center. The MSM would all show up as Republican-biased by that measure, I think, because they present a lot of settled issues as matters of controversy and they tend to allow Republicans to set the agenda.

I think we've had this conversation before a while back, but you're making my point as much as Trots did. There's no way someone like you would say "hmm I see lots of liberal bias" in the media, just like some others flying Red would never say "wow lots of conservative bias in the media". Mainstream tv bias is as blatant as it's ever been. The reasons are debatable, but it's overly present. The conversation has removed from why things have regressed and is pretty much a form of finger pointing now.

For an obvious to observe example, there is little difference in Don Lemon's CNN show vs Sean Hannity's FOX show, yet the liberal or conservative viewer refuses to denounce "their show" due to that exact bias I am referring to, while blasting the other show. People will do just that, pick on the bias you do find much stronger, regardless of the overall bias present. Instead even, they'll go one step further, dismissing, minimizing, or even defending the bias from their preferred Lemon or Hannity. This is why whenever these media bias charts circulate, you can ask someone their political leanings and always predict exactly what someone will say before they even view the chart.

You're entering into a very dedicated trolls territory. He will exhaust you and win through a very simple manner of more words than your words. I have warned others like I am warning you now, he is never wrong and you will be educated.
 
@Limbo Pete thoughts on the historical content and analysis in this?
The guy only has 3K subs, so try to ignore the lower production values.

lololololololol!!!!! Well in that case, luckily for me then that I have about an hour left to hang around before a meeting puts me to sleep later lol.
 
I fucking doubt you were laughing out loud out loud out loud...out loud, that emphatically.

You're right, in real life I barely laugh like that in public lol. If anything I'm the "guy rarely has an expression" type. But online? My laugh is the level of cartoon villains. This is where my laughs can shine.
