    CNN get a "Mostly Factual" rating over FOX's "Mixed" rating. Also CNN gets a "Left-Center" rating, versus FOX's "EXTREME Right" rating. Even MSNBC doesn't fall under the "Extreme" category. But the nice thing about living in the US, is that if you want to live in a propaganda bubble, you have the freedom to do so.

    I’m not just talking about Fox. I can find articles to prove all those claims from local news outlets. CNN is biased, I don’t care what their rating is, it’s the blind who can’t see past their own nose. Which one you want me to prove?

    the number of registered voters is irrelevant to the number of votes that Biden receives.

    the election will not be stolen. Biden will again be POTUS regardless of for whom the people cast their votes. DC will not be disrupted.

    That is not stealing an election. You need to have an election in order to steal one.

    The Media Bias site is lefty misinformation fake news, and propaganda..

    Media Bias Fact Check literally is a written opinion site by a man with a ""Communications Degree in college"" Dave Van Zandt

    The flagrant and simplistic nature of these bogus critiques suggests that Media Bias Fact Check is either inept and/or dishonest.
    https://www.justfactsdaily.com/media-bias-fact-check-incompetent-or-dishonest

    Discredited, self-styled ‘fact-checker’ website was served with a ‘cease and desist’ legal notice today for publishing unsubstantiated and defamatory claims against Principia Scientific International (PSI).
    MEDIA BIAS/FACT CHECK site owner admits he is unqualified and misrepresented himself as a seasoned journalist.
    https://climatechangedispatch.com/media-bias-fact-check-site-served-cease-and-desist/

    Media Bias/Fact Check bills itself as "The most comprehensive media bias resource." It's run by Dave Van Zandt, making it fair to say it's run by "some guy" ("Dave studied Communications in college" is his main claim to expertise).
    We have nothing against "some guy" possessing expertise despite a lack of qualifications, of course. One doesn't need a degree or awards (or audience) to be right about stuff. But is Van Zandt and his Media Bias/Fact Check right about PolitiFact?
    https://www.politifactbias.com/2017/10/can-you-trust-what-media-biasfact-check.html

    Media Bias Fact Check Is a Major SCAM to Silence the Right
    https://www.independentsentinel.com/media-bias-fact-checking-scam-silence-right/

    Don't trust Fact checkers, especially not this one. It favors fake news on the left, and to true sites that are not on the mainstream media, it labels as conspiracy theory and junk pseudo science, when the truth is just the opposite. This website is as biased and as full of lies as you get.
    https://www.sitejabber.com/reviews/mediabiasfactcheck.com

    Conservatives have criticized the liberal "fact-checking" website for being subjective and often outright false.[19][20][21] On their "10 Best Fact Checking Sites," they list several objectively false and generally inaccurate left-wing "fact-checkers," including PolitiFact, Snopes, and the Fact Checker by the Washington Post.[22]
    Media Bias Fact Check sources its information from the Anti-Defamation League and the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center in order to inaccurately label right-wing websites and organizations as "questionable" sources according to Robert Spencer, who wrote to Media Bias/Fact Check's editor describing the attacks on his website, Jihad Watch, as "pure libel," afterward claiming he received no response from the editor.[23]
    https://conservapedia.com/Media_Bias_Fact_Check

    Perhaps the most jarring instance of these scams is a site called “Media Bias Fact Check” which turns out to be just one guy making up whatever he feels like about news outlets, based on what he admits is his personal opinion, while typically providing no evidence – and then altering the ratings of news outlets who point out his scam.
    https://www.palmerreport.com/politics/palmer-report-exclusive-media-bias-fact-check/2115/

    Overall, such fallacious attacks on outsider-opinion represent an effort to strangle social discourse from the top down. In this writer’s opinion, sites like Media Bias Fact Check constitute a desperate retaliatory measure in the wake of the legacy media’s loss of collective attention, and seek to reinforce narrative control in the hands of organizations like the Atlantic Council while smearing reliable sources of scientific journalism like WikiLeaks.
    https://www.investmentwatchblog.com...ikileaks-supports-western-propaganda-machine/

    If Media Bias Fact Check were to be given a rating, they would be “Left” with “Mixed” honesty. Interestingly enough, they don’t rate themselves. Not that it matters, they’d certainly put themselves squarely in the middle as “Least Biased” with “High” ratings for honesty, neither of which are even remotely true

    not a conspiracy at all. We have allowed this and sadly, as long as it's someone from team Democrat then it's ok.

    DC is out of control

    If I've learned one thing over the years, it's that there are a lot of Right Wing parrot sites that all spout the same everyday news. They all pick up sourced articles from Breitbart, Judicial Watch, and other Far Right organizations. The entire platform of heavily funded Far Right extremist groups depends on all these outlets to spread their disinformation. Koch Brothers oil interests, Climate Change misinformation, and even crap like Q'Anon. The sooner each individual of the electorate understands what is happening to them, the better for our country.

    Just remember that truth is not subjective and it is entirely objective.

    That's the part that can be very hard to deal with

    Which I am inclined to believe slightly favors Trump. The democrats need to be mindful that the GOP is really out there in local and state politics in ways I don't think we have seen before and this could have coat-tails not seen in national polling as well.

    Anyway, I am in the planet-destroying asteroid or something crowd. I won't vote for either. Maybe I third-party/independent, maybe I undervote in the POTUS race, maybe I stay home. Who knows at this point.

    I voted republican as recently as 2016 so your “R beside his name” immediately fails.

    As to why, I hate everything he and his supporters represent. From the rampant adultery and praise of him being a bully to what they have done to the political discourse in this nation.

    During trump, he was handed a good economy and immediately starting pushing the fed to lower interest rates to prop up his marginal GDP growth, they used tactics typically reserved for a recession such as quarantine easing to further this.

    Not to mention the runway spending, tax cuts (that recently expired for the poor and middle class but not the wealthy) and failed trade wars. Gas was low due to supply and demand — if you don’t understand what that is feel free to look it up. Him moving to have OPEC slash production with no plan to stabilize once demand picked back up was just one of many failures.

    Negotiating with terrorist groups and then throwing that mess in the next presidents lap was also unexpected.

    Him and his supporters not only alienated half the nation they did it to all of our allies and were openly mocked. So yes, it was the mean tweets and so much more.

    If you made it this far (I know, so many words) honestly, I am just tired of filth being empowered to push more filth. So I will vote against it. And if y’all lose, again, I will proudly repeat the slogan y’all screamed for 4 years. Remember “f*** your feelings”?

    It’s odd the number of super pro trump new member accounts that have suddenly joined this close to the election. Fascinating

    CNN is a lot less biased than Fox News, imo.

    First, they must want to understand. You can lead a horse to water, but if some flim-flam man has convinced him that he's not thirsty, he won't drink.

    Again ... and you?

    I disagree about the truth. If it's a lie, then those who believe it believe a lie, not a truth, imo.

    why not educate yourself on "mediamatters" and then look to see what is published/carried on

    USA Today and other gannet papers, NYT, CNN/NPR/CBS and all the rest

    if you wish to cry out about media bias, I suggest you look at the advantage held by the Democrat party and their loyal media following

    It's mindboggling that Biden isn't wiping the floor with Donald Trump.
    All the baggage, all the court cases (all coming to a head right before the election, what a coincidence) and yet Trump in some polls, leads.

    It's truly sad, because old ****ing fossil Biden, the horrible candidate, would be so easy to beat, if we just had chosen another candidate.

    More of the same Conspiracy Theory nonsense. You do realize that big money tries to influence public perception, by dictating the narrative put forth by the media? Nowhere is this more prevalent than the sources I mentioned - Judicial Watch, Breitbart, Koch Brothers, etc - and their infiltration into Fox, Newsmax, and others. Environmental groups such as the Sierra Club, Greenpeace, etc have very little financial clout compared to the multinational corporations that are spending billions. News sources that you mention (USA Today, NYT, CNN/NPR/CBS) report the news. They often criticize both Parties, and candidates from both. They don't "skip" news like Fox and others. Current court cases are a reality, and as such - newsworthy. Fox seldom mentions them. E. Jean Carroll case was MIA on Fox.
