This is 100% true imo.

I scour the internet when I really want to learn about a specific event. There is so much misinformation though sometimes it makes your head spin because you will find so many different accounts of what actually happened.

On one hand it's great to have so many sources of information but on the other hand this vast ocean of information also has oceans of misinformation too.

There's no question information is contaminated purposefully to derail the truth regarding any noteworthy event so you really have to scour for the truth and sometimes I honestly believe it's simply impossible to find the truth.

There's no true neutral source of information either I have come to find. That's why you are better off taking in as much as you can from all different sources and try to piece things together try to glean the truth from all the sources of info you read from.

Tim Pool is a good example. Hated by both the left and right.

What kind of media does a guy with a forum handle icedwards consider neutral journalism? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.][You must be logged in to view images.

Do we really have to go through this whole song and dance where you feign dumb or can we just skip straight to the part where you try to convince us The Daily Stormer is a reputable news source?

The topic is bias in journalism.

1) I don't read The Daily Stormer.

2) You're a moron for thinking it's a neutral media outlet with the goal of journalistic objectivism.

3) I answered your question. You evaded my question. Who is the deceptive one here? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's called Generation Zyklon because it's considerably more right-wing. I didn't start that meme, but it's accurate so I use it.

I already said Reuters.

Being able to squeeze projecting, dog-whistling and gaslighting into one post has got to some sort of Nazi bingo though. Well done.

I had an undergrad assignment to write a machine learning algorithm to classify reuters articles as biased or not. Can confirm they aren't unbiased. What I said earlier about legacy mainstream media applies to Reuters too.

A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It is safer to have a lot.

I was watching both before the election but the unwillingness cnn showed to say anything bad about the left really brought things into perspective. They even fired and reprimanded people who said anything in the slightest that may hurt the left's image. Granted I don't think fox is an angel. And while people say fox leans to the right it's not owned by the right lol. Fox has always been in the firing sights by the democrats. Media hates fox this is ever so apparent when you look at tv shows. They all make one sided jokes that get into the youths mind making them grow up to think fox is bad. Again not saying either is an angel.

Information is power and who ever wields it has the ability to shape the universe.
