    Overall, we rate MeidasTouch Left Biased based on the negative portrayal of Donald Trump and Republicans and the promotion of Democratic candidates. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to a lack of transparency with funding and the publication of one-sided content that can be misleading.

    ?

    Just working with your sources. I don’t care about Meidas Touch. I hadn’t even heard of them before I stumbled into this thread.

    I think it’s okay to accept that everything and everyone has a bias. Removing bias from all reporting is simply impossible, so instead we work to understand our bias’ and the bias’ of others and instead call out non-factual reporting. So, to answer your question, I think it’s okay to call out bad sources for being bad regardless of their lean, but I also don’t think having a noteworthy lean makes a sourcebinherently bad.

    I don’t appreciate the straw man you’re attempting to build for me. Trying to angrily have my half of the conversation while spewing a pile of assumptions about what I think is a bad look. Unless the look you’re going for is “a random idiot”, which, I mean, when someone tells you who they are, believe them.
