As someone with a left-leaning bias, I agree with your assessment, if only in the sense that the loudest and most powerful voices in the most reputable newsrooms tend to also have (implicit) left-leaning biases. I would love for their to be a conservative equivalent (this was the reason for the founding of Fox News pre-Ailes: get a bunch of conservatives in the newsroom and have them do their jobs to the best of their ability, following an implicit rather than explicit bias).
Does any equivalent exist today (eg trying to report as an outlet run by conservatives instead of a conservative outlet)?
- popmystack 10y agoThis is what I agree with, and hence my original sentiment "this seems like a problem conservatives should address."
