They are both very biased websites reporting news that is slathered with biased opinion in order to validate partisan opinions of those that read it. I think you could be biased and still maintain a level of honesty, or you can show your bias by making shit up like MJ. MJ is equivalent to the Onion.

No not really. I believe in right and wrong, and the left just happens to be wrong.. By no means are right wing biased sources exactly pure and wholesome in their reporting but they are far more trustworthy. Left wing sources like MJ are nothing but protesters in print. The hate, violence, and whining that emanates from their liberal constituents manifests itself through their "reporting".

It's just based on the news. Just because they are willing to publish a wide variety of stories doesn't make them mother Jones. I've seen Mother Jones articles going after Democrats. Your point? All I am saying is that if you are going to consistently use news sources that are heavily biased to one side, you won't have any room when anyone uses new sources from the other side. I'm one that uses as close to unbiased as I can find and will use sources from my opposing viewpoint whenever possible, so for me this isn't a thing, but there has been a prevalence of notorious right-biased news sources being used by posters that like to bash people on the left for using similar sources. It shows a blindness to the blatant partisanship that is being exhibited and makes it difficult to have any serious conversations when there is a refusal to even admit that it exists.

You can be biased and maintain honesty. The folks at the Daily Wire are often honest about their opinion, but they often provide opinions that are wrong. You and Lucie are focusing on the example I used rather than acknowledging the fact that a news source is being used that is just as far right as the left-wing news sources you bash others for using. You're being intellectually dishonest.

You have to go back to 1964 to find a Republican that did worse than him. I guess having great schools in this state worked out.

Mother Jones has repeatedly been caught making up the news. Slate has been on a crusade trying to normalize pedophilia. There is a difference between leftist news and conservative news. They are not even remotely the same or comparable. And it's quite simple to read a story with any partisan slant and figure out the actual news. We have been doing that all of our lives with the leftist MSM. I realize that this is a newer thing for for leftists.

That whole "Nuking little children" thing was just a political ad from a rival. ![]() RE: Almost 50% of Leftists refuse to be friends with a Trump supporter. - Bengalzona - 07-23-2017 (07-23-2017, 11:20 AM)StLucieBengal Wrote: You do not personally know one person who voted for Trump?

Then why didn't you do that with this article and thread? The title of the article and the title of the thread is a partisan misrepresentation of the actual data from the poll. The article itself is filled with biased assumptions that have no basis in the data from the poll. It is making stuff up to validate your opinions, and those of the author. Please, tell me again how the Daily Wire and other right wing" news" sites are better than the left and how you can easily figure out the partisan slant and actual news, because from everything in this thread it seems you have difficulty with that.

Everyone has their tipping point when they vote. Mine was judges and immigration enforcement.
