I agree with you but we will never get to a point where we're reporting news because it's the facts. What we choose to report is ultimately evident of what the reporter and society at large values.
Lots of good leftist media outlets online though? TV is mostly for the elderly at this point.
I believe Hardtimes is satire, like Clickhole or the Onion.I have no idea what it is but google gets me a YT video on Jordan Peterson and this article. I Found Cum Town Episodes on My Boyfriend's Phone and I'd Rather He Was Just Cheating
One of the reasons I don't bother with cable news/podcasts/etc. is that i read far, far faster than people can speak.
Took me a long while to realize I was the exception, not the rule on that one.
That is just who listens to it. I wish I knew the source, but NPR wanted to know for themselves how they skewed a few years back. I think it was Princeton that did a study over 3-4 years of news and entertainment that was on NPR. It found that the news was a tick to the right in terms of its coverage and anchors/guests, while the entertainment was more left. But over all it is widley considered one of the most fair news outlets in the world.I dunno, that sounds skewed a bit. According to Pew Research: http://www.journalism.org/2014/10/21/political-polarization-media-habits/
I think thats a sub group of leftist, most leftist I know believe capitalisms failure is inevitable and we should replace it before it happens. Not that itll fail and from the ashes a new system will arise.Because much of leftism is fundamentally religious in nature. It believes we're in the end times (Late Capitalism) and an apocalyptic event (capitalism's failure) will usher in a Utopia (post-capitalist Socialism) for those that survive it. It's literally just the "end of days/rapture" stuff translated to an economic context. And religion doesn't rely on data.
To me that's a distinction without a difference.I think thats a sub group of leftist, most leftist I know believe capitalisms failure is inevitable and we should replace it before it happens. Not that itll fail and from the ashes a new system will arise.
I feel like your definition implies an accelerationist motive, while mines implies a more proactive reformative motive.
Both believe the system will inevitably fail and that it must be reformed/destroyed, depending on if you're Orthodox or Evangelical.I feel like your definition implies an accelerationist motive, while mines implies a more proactive reformative motive.

Their politics are also bad despite being on "the left" because they are bad because you have to be bad to do the type of format they do.
Realistically that's not possible
I hope your grandchildren learn that when you were faced with the hard reality that capitalism's entropy drove our atmosphere to the brink of permanent destruction because neoliberals could never have adequately carbon taxed and incentivized green energy sources in order to salvage it, you cried out "Don't blame the Free Market! All this doomsaying is just bigotry against supply side economics!"
What grandchildren? And I've never argued once for supply-side economics.I hope your grandchildren learn that when you were faced with the hard reality that capitalism's entropy drove our atmosphere to the brink of permanent destruction because neoliberals could never have adequately carbon taxed and incentivized green energy sources in order to salvage it, you cried out "Don't blame the Free Market!

So you've never heard of Amber and Virgil...
...or the business model of all literally political coverage...
...or tautologies.
How does anyone on this board take you seriously?
MSNBC definitely not, NBC as a whole? Yes. Especially because of Chuck Todd being the political director.How the he'll is msnc centrist. Seems like most people there have the same opinions as people here
What does this have to do with reporting the newsNot having biases and not recognizing your own biases are different things. The former is impossible, the latter is not.

IIRC he got tossed out after the Megyn Kelly disaster and/or a Republican taking the WH.
Yeah there's still no way reporting the news are gonna be "unbiased" what determines news in the first place are our values and interests.It's directly related the first post I made that you responded to...
IIRC he got tossed out after the Megyn Kelly disaster and/or a Republican taking the WH.
The last thing we need is more super-biased media. What we really need is for Fox News to die and go away forever.
while this statement isn't factually incorrect, the mere fact that you are comparing them tonally is a shitty side effect of how our discourse is all about optics and not policy.
someone could read what you said and go "well i guess both are bad i should be somewhere in the middle like Boogie"
what Chapo supports couldn't be more diametrically opposed to Limbaugh, and yet they get to exist in the same breath because both are "heated". again, i don't disagree with you i'm just disappointed in general that this level of comparison is what we are trained by the media to operate on.
MSNBC is just more corporate media. They provide more favorable coverage for the Democrats as opposed to Republicans.Pretty sure MSNBC is considered left by most, perhaps not far left enough for some.
There's also NPR, which rocks.

That would be evil, but that's the only way you'll turn some of the Fox News faithful that are guaranteed to vote come poll time.A "left version of Fox" would still be bad. It would be less bad, but I really don't need a network that straight up lies to me just because the lies are now things I want to hear.
Ah, ok, the initiative must have just died off while he maintained his position.
Yeah there's still no way reporting the news are gonna be "unbiased" what determines news in the first place are our values and interests.
Mhmm. Crooked media is VERY liberal. There's easily dozens more but they are one of the big guns.
Chapo trap house and the various smaller anarchist and socialist podcasts are probably the closest thing to it. That said I don't think there's a large enough audience for economic leftism in the United States.
lmaoI have no idea what it is but google gets me a YT video on Jordan Peterson and this article. I Found Cum Town Episodes on My Boyfriend's Phone and I'd Rather He Was Just Cheating
NPR is kind of left. More middle-liberal-cosmopolitan than anything. Well monied, popular, mainstream successful.There's stuff like MoveOn.org, Pacifica and NPR.
I usually stck with fact-checking sites anyway.

Thank god for Pacifica.
I don't think any single entity could ever encompass the entirety of the Left's ideals enough to be accepted. It's a lot harder to do than the opposite route of "hate everything that isn't you." Might be more effective to fix or narrow down the current outlets.
Others bragged about the filling meal in emails that were screened by prison personnel for safety reasons. Some were copied by employees and sent to Rojas.
"Ima end up fat i been eatin like a boss all week i just had steak, pie, chicken, potatoes, salad mac nd cheese rice all type of (things)," one wrote. "bro ibe workin out for (nothing)"
Have you ever read a word Marx wrote? This is just a nonsense. It has no relation to what the left believes.Because much of leftism is fundamentally religious in nature. It believes we're in the end times (Late Capitalism) and an apocalyptic event (capitalism's failure) will usher in a Utopia (post-capitalist Socialism) for those that survive it.

Facts are facts, America. We should care about getting things right. Yet standards of who gets fact-checked, how often + why are unclear.
This is where false equivalency+bias creeps in, allowing climate deniers to be put on par w/scientists, for example.
