Media Bias

This might be the only thing we agree on politically Chief. I think that scale is accurate.

I also have social media but don't get any mainstream news for it, mine is strictly for keeping up with friends/family and sharing memes.

I don't know how accurate those scales are, but they are from two different sources. They do seem fairly similar, and probably about right - just from a cursory look and without any investigation.

“The New York Times, which hasn’t endorsed a Republican presidential candidate in 66 years, or at The Washington Post, which has never endorsed a Republican presidential candidate”

Clearly these are extremely biased news sources…

LOL, under what Ownership?

Well neither side has a monopoly on idiotic questions (and in this case I mean really idiotic).

Jan. 6 hearing dominates top TV networks — except one

ONE!

NEW YORK (AP) — America's top television networks on Thursday turned prime time over to a gripping account of former President Donald Trump's actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol — with one prominent exception.

The top-rated news network, Fox News Channel, stuck with its own lineup of commentators. Sean Hannity denounced the “show trial” elsewhere on TV just as he was featured in it, with the House's Jan. 6 committee examining his tweets to Trump administration figures.

Fact check: Social media post shows fabricated story about Biden and the economy

The claim: Image shows headline of story in The Atlantic praising Biden for having the courage to shrink the economy
In July, the Commerce Department reported the economy shrank for a second straight quarter, stoking recession worries. President Joe Biden has rejected that description and has taken steps to strengthen the economy.

Nevertheless, a July 30 Facebook post has helped spread the false notion that Biden has purposefully hurt the economy and wants to see it contract. It shows an image of fabricated headlines from a nonexistent article by The Atlantic. The post was shared more than 100 times in four days.

The headline of the purported story reads, "The Quiet Courage of Biden's Negative Growth Economy."

The supposed subheadline reads: "In an era of unchecked economic prosperity, one man had the moxie to pump the brakes - to save us from ourselves."

But a spokesperson for The Atlantic told USA TODAY the article and the headlines in the image are fabricated.

The Atlantic headline is not real
The image in the social media post does not depict real headlines, and The Atlantic never wrote such a story, Anna Bross, a spokesperson for The Atlantic said.

"We have reported this as fake and as a trademark infringement," Bross told USA TODAY in an email.

The story was not published on The Atlantic's website and does not appear on The Atlantic's Twitter account.

^the take away from the Atlantic should be why are readers believing that’s a true headline.

Why do you believe what trump says?

Why do you believe what trump says?

What does the story that was apparently not published on The Atlantic's website have to do with Trump? Or do you just strive to include the word "trump" in all your posts...
