Radically centrist in that they go out of their way not to be liberal or conservative in an attempt to stay unbiased, sometimes to the detriment of the programming.
- adwi 7y agoI think we can all at least agree that is a delightful headline.
- bitlax 7y agoWell they aren't liberal or conservative so much as establishment Democrat. And they regularly engage in bias by omission in their reporting.
- pstuart 7y agothe bias is "don't upset the apple cart". I think the complaints about it being liberal are only valid in the context of not being rabidly right-wing.
- pstuart 7y agoHa. I don't mind the downvotes (because I'm right). The "shift to the right" is pretty well documented. The fact that "liberal" is considered a pejorative today is testament to that. I welcome proof otherwise. Edit: example #1 of "neutral bias": The war on drugs is reported on in a matter of fact manner, and I've heard ZERO editorial comments that point out the insanity and wrongfulness of it. Same thing with the wars, etc.
- bitlax 7y agoYou could really show you don't care by not posting at all.
- jessaustin 7y agoI think nowadays "centrist" means "always supports all wars everywhere for any reason with any victim".
