I may be alone in this, but I have a hard time giving credence to any article posted on a site with a specific political agenda.

- e12e 14y agoSo, you don't read news, then? The idea that you can find "objective reporting" anywhere is a dangerous illusion (or delusion). Just because something comes from a "good" source, doesn't mean it's true. Personally I prefer it when the agenda is (seems) obvious -- that makes it easier to read responsibly.
- Karunamon 14y agoForget the political slant; either their writing is correct or it is not. Fox isn't evil because they're a right wing propaganda machine, they're evil because they lie. This article is weak, not because Mother Jones is left slanted, but because the writing shows a profound lack of basic science understanding and carries a lot of unsourced scaremongering.
