Yes, it is sad that Fox doesn't have enough left-leaning commentators.
Media producers have realized that consumers self-select into viewing distribution channels that appeal to their existing beliefs. It creates a feedback loop
where media market segmentation by political affiliation drives people further apart.
PragerU is a conservative entity that tried to penetrate a liberal bastion; I like it for that. I also like it when liberal entities try to penetrate conservative bastions.
From my subjective survey of the media landscape, it seems that the left-leaning bastions currently dominate. To the extent that they push reasonable conservatives off of their channels, they encourage conservatives to bifurcate: either join them, or retreat to far-right positions.
- FireBeyond 7y ago> PragerU is a conservative entity that tried to penetrate a liberal bastion > To the extent that they push reasonable conservatives off of their channels PragerU is classified as "extreme right" by media bias groups. And it scores "Low" (on a scale of Very Low to Very High) on Factual Reporting. I know reasonable conservatives exist. I'm not entirely sure that PragerU is a representation thereof.
