Re: Media Bias
How Political Fact-Checkers Distort the Truth
Glenn Kessler and his ilk aren't sticking to the facts. They're promoting a moderate dogma.
https://newrepublic.com/article/156039/ ... tort-truthAt the June 28 Democratic presidential debate, Senator Bernie Sanders said, “Three people [in this country] own more wealth than the bottom half of America.” And Glenn Kessler, who leads The Washington Post’s “Fact Checker” blog, wrote, “This snappy talking point is based on numbers that add up.” But Kessler, having checked the fact and confirmed that it was true, for some reason continued checking. “People in the bottom half have essentially no wealth,” he helpfully pointed out. “So the comparison is not especially meaningful.”
That seems like a judgment call best left to, say, a “meaning-checker,” but Kessler, a former business section editor who happens to be a descendant of Royal Dutch Shell and Procter & Gamble executives—an actual member of the American elite and a likely member of the one percent—makes Sanders the regular target of his attempts to police the bounds of acceptable political realities from his perch at The Washington Post. In June, he dinged Sanders for saying that “millions of Americans are forced to work two or three jobs”—because, while Sanders was right, at least eight million do work more than one job, 95 percent of Americans don’t. His team has also taken on Sanders’s claim that health care costs lead to 500,000 bankruptcies a year, going so far as to fact-check the study where Sanders found that statistic. Finding fault with its premises, they declared the study to be untrue, and awarded the candidate three “Pinocchios” for referencing it. (In the lexicon of the Post’s fact-checking department, lies, rather than causing Pinocchio’s nose to grow, cause him to spontaneously reproduce, like a very naughty paramecium.)

Re: Media Bias
A story about the Fox News digital side getting a make-over in the image of the almighty Hannity.
'Hannity’s Crony Has Taken Over Fox News Digital—and It’s a Disaster, Staffers Say'
'Hannity’s Crony Has Taken Over Fox News Digital—and It’s a Disaster, Staffers Say'
“For many years, there was a distinction between the channel and the website, where the focus of digital was primarily news with a smattering of opinion articles that focused on both sides of any issue,” another current staffer told The Daily Beast. “Now, the website has slowly become another outlet for the channel’s right-wing opinion on-air talent. Their divisive commentaries now take center stage on the website’s homepage while the articles around them target anything Democrat and boost anything GOP, regardless of what is right or wrong.”

Re: Media Bias
Since July, if masks worked, or if shut-downs worked, or if the opposite worked, one of the regions trying that method (or none) would show as a clear 'winner'. Trouble is, looks like none of it is having much effect. Locked or not. Masked or not. Distanced or not.Scot Dutchy wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 6:54 amI dont have to prove a negative do I. There many conflicting reports that experts say no conclusion can be made. The RIVM came out with another report yesterday into the size of droplets required to transmit the virus. Again more confusion. Again official data is put into doubt.Hermit wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 6:40 amWhat data do you support that assertion with?Scot Dutchy wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 5:57 amWe are not in the mess you lot are in or anywhere near it.
Makes me wonder if the vaccine will have any effect on lockdowns, mask mandates or cancelling concerts.

Re: Media Bias
Doesn't the news make it to Bumfuck, Canada? Victoria crushed its second wave with masks and lockdowns. They haven't had a case or death now for 40 odd days.
