- busymom0 5y agoAll the links have zero hits for the word "opinion" on the site. Try Ctrl + F, you won't find it. EDIT: 6 out of 7 don't have the opinion badge.
- cwizou 5y agoThe Tom Hanks one has its title literally starting with opinion, and a blue opinion badge on top.
- busymom0 5y agoOk, so you found 1 outlier out of 7 links I provided? None of the other ones have that opinion badge.
- freshpots 5y agoDo you need an opinion badge to decipher if it something is an opinion piece or not? That is some poor media literacy if true and, generally, when an account like 'busymom0' dumps multiple links like that, it is a good indicator that they're here to argue and sealion, not find truth/answers.
- busymom0 5y agoYou are ignoring the entire context of my comment.
- freshpots 5y agoNo I am not.
- busymom0 5y agoYes you are. In another comment, you called: > “Matt Taibbi is a hack and has no credibility. He used to be a left/anti-corporate/anti-power crusader and was attacked by the right. Then it became more profitable to put out trash like this” Is that “finding truth and answers” as you claim to want to do? And as hominem attacks on my username really?? This clearly shows you are a partisan actor who enjoys calling everyone who opposes your view point “a hack and no credibility”. No better than the modern “everyone who disagrees with me is a ____” meme. And this makes it even more ironic that you claim to call me “wanting to argue”. Won’t be responding further as this is clearly a pointless thread.

- slumpt_ 5y agoYou shouldn’t feel so uncomfortable about the news confronting the complexities of racism in our society. You don’t need any special badges to give it a proper interrogation. Thanks for all the great links at least!
- TechBro8615 5y agoI think OP is pointing out the rather blatant selection bias in the reporting.
- macintux 5y agoNPR covers a lot of ground. OP picked 7 articles across several days; I think it says a lot more about that selection bias than NPR’s.
