I'm highly educated despite what you may think.
>Lazy lazy lazy false equivalence.
I have a degree in philosophy and I think you need a refresher course on logic.
> To say that "they're all the same" is absolutely not the case and nor will it ever be.
I didn't say they were the "same". Saying an apple and a banana are fruits doesn't mean that I'm saying an apple is a banana. Just because I say foxnews and the nytimes are propagandists doesn't mean I'm saying foxnews = nytimes.
> The sooner people become more discerning of the information that they consume, the better off we all will be.
Agreed. Hopefully, you'll join us one day in being a more discerning about information.
> There is an extremely large gulf in the baseline quality of reporting between those two outlets.
Agreed. NYTimes is far better quality propaganda. They have a lot more influence and credibility. But the NYTimes is still propaganda.
> If you cannot discern that, then you are too far gone.
One of us seem to gone for sure.
