I think you might be projecting a bit here, as I have not "attacked you" at all. I asked a question, and you answered it. In turn, I responded to the substance of your comment. In retrospect, my initial comment probably would've been along the lines of "is the Daily Wire any more unreliable than mainstream news sources?", as I can't think of any mainstream news org that hasn't published multiple factual inaccuracies in recent memory. Which is what I said in my follow-up comment. Then you asked me to not shoot the messenger and provided a link to your source. At that point, I probably should've said something like "shoot the messenger???", because I haven't actually done that in this conversation. However, even if I had, the conversation is about information/news (and its propagation), where everyone is a messenger, so I'm not sure who else there is to shoot. So that's what I responded to. When I was talking about "knowing the truth for yourself", that was specifically in the context of my previous statement about bearing "objective" truth. Sure, you think what you said about The Daily Wire is true, I'm just maintaining that this is a subjective truth and therefore a messenger is still responsible for its spread. Even the source you cited has a lot of subjectivity in their methodology, and they seem like they want to be objective. But again, after re-reading my own comments I have no idea at which point you think I attacked you. In fact, the only person that can reasonably claim being attacked is me, who was called rude and insufferable for something I didn't do. My unsolicited advice would be to not take disagreement on matters of substance as a personal attack, and even if you do feel attacked don't go all scorched earth and start name-calling.
