Not disagreeing, but I want to point out that every news source is typically biased and has ideological reasons for every story that they push.

- rootusrootus 4y agoTrue, which is why you should always consider the source along with their probable motivations. When a publication that is openly promoting libertarian philosophy writes a story about abuses by government, it's worth considering that this is probably the most egregious abuse they could find. It's in their best interest to focus our attention on the most convincing evidence. Most mainstream media isn't overtly political, so their motivations are usually more monetary than ideological. Following the money is always a good idea.
