I don't read the WP nor the NYT, do you have an example of an article in either of them that is a caricature of leftist news? My main news source (besides HN)

My main news source (besides HN) is the Dutch public news, which is described as left-wing, but to me it feels very objective. I find it hard to judge if that means I'm just leftist and don't see what they're leaving out, or that the right is in an alternative reality.

- tinco 6y agoSomeone responded with a quite compelling example of sensationalized news that touched racism, but then deleted their post. Most notable was that first the story emphasised races of some perpetrators harassing a black girl. But then later when the story turned out not to be true the NYT published a rectification in which race was not mentioned at all. I can see how that works to slant the readers view of the world. I'll be careful of this, though there is little overly sensationalized news in my feed.
