    I mean how do you even source a claim like that? That said, MBFC messes up a lot. I mean how the hell is NYT left wing?

      If you actually go to the site, it explains its reasoning

      Also, it doesn’t say NYT, it’s “The Washington Post”, and it’s not “left-wing”, it says “left-center”

        Which disagrees with objective reality.

        Also, it doesn’t say NYT, it’s “The Washington Post”, and it’s not “left-wing”, it says “left-center”

        I was giving an example.

          Which disagrees with objective reality.

          You’re free to provide evidence and make a counter argument to support this accusation.

          I was giving an example.

          An example of you lying, or an example of the fact you can’t read? An example of what, exactly, since the New York Times is also rated as “Left-Center”, and “left-wing” isn’t even a rating that MBFC uses?

          Please clarify

            Again, left-center is included under the general classification “left wing”, which NYT is absolutely not. Are you being willfully obtuse?

              No. It’s just that I can read. And your opinions have little to do with objective reality.

      Even giving examples of this supposed bias would be better than essentially just going “they’re biased trust me bro”
