Still not willing to define "Liberal Media" and "Conservative Media," with examples?


I gave examples of liberal and conservative media that agree with your graphs showing their bias. Best example is the liberal reporting of the WSJ and conservative editorial page. Most notable is that the conservative editors of the WSJ are willing to host both liberal and conservative op-eds whereas NY Times reporters wanted to not allow Senator Tom Cotton (R) an op-ed. Democrats seems to want to censor their political opponents more often.

Confirmation bias, huh? Are these the media outlets you and Rick and the others boys here listen to and read?

In addition to marking the third straight presidential election in which U.S. authorities have unveiled politically charged details about Russia’s attempted interference in U.S. politics, an indictment indicates how Moscow may be attempting to capitalize on the skyrocketing popularity of right-wing podcasters, livestreamers and other content creators who have found successful careers on social media in the years since Trump was in office.

The U.S. Justice Department doesn’t allege any wrongdoing by the influencers, some of whom it says were given false information about the source of the company’s funding. Instead, it accuses two employees of RT, a Russian state media company, of funneling nearly $10 million to a Tennessee-based content creation company for Russia-friendly content.


Now, I would definitely say that this is right wing conservative media.

Of course the Left and their media allies love to lie about Trump and Republicans.

Or do you still maintain Hunters Laptop was a Russian plot?

I still don't like Trump. I would prefer Vance, or DeSantis or even Chase over the Donald.

Kamala Harris? She has done very little to show me that she would be the actual president. As much a puppet as Joe Biden has been during his term.

Maybe the debate will convince me that she will actually be the Leader of the Free World.

Let's not forget that the Russians paid right wing conservative media to spread their propaganda.

The Russians did not use liberal media - whatever that is. They didn't use the "main stream media." They used conservative media.




You've been played.

Who cares what the Russians want?
Who cares who Google wants to win? Google and their monopoly of search engines and their results is a much more powerful way to influence American elections than a few right wing influencers who aren't going to have any affect on the undecided.

Remember when Zuckerberg admitted Team Biden forced him to censor Meta customers? And anti-Biden news stories? The fix is in and Meta is much more powerful than Russia Today.
