>If you are into news and being informed, leaving off sites like breitbart from regular perusal is a mistake. They often bring up facts and perspectives considered unimportant by other outlets. Even infowars has its uses, if for nothing else other than entertainment value.
I am not from US so I have no bias in this case, do you mean that I should check sites that I consider to be garbage because they sometimes may bring some story that other sites won't?
Are you doing this? Do you read garbage articles, do you watch acient allients shows, read about flat earth etc ? Because when I notice that soem news site went in the bad direction(clickbait and other garbage) I will not waste my time to find a diamond in tons of garbage, it is not my fault they have that much garbage
- tim333 8y agoI sometimes glance at Breitbart although I'd be more of a NYT guy politically. It can be useful as an indication what the 40% or so that support Trump are thinking.
- simion314 8y agoYeah, I understand why you would check it once in a while, I personally don't read political news that often since there is nothing really important happening daily. If I have tiem for reading better to read something I like better like science or technology or entertainment.
- bmer 8y agoIs it even a useful indication of that? Perhaps it's a more useful indication of how certain groups want a particular demographic (e.g. Trump supporters) to think?
