How biased is your news source?

[BR14]

All news is written by some central global elite media outlet, it's the only explanation.





Or alternatively, some spotty 17 year old on work experience at the Daily Mail copied it from the Guardian.

Not me mate, you have to pay for it. I stick with the Bild, still has tits in it...none of your political correctness gone mad over here...

Evidence of your assertion? They’ve provided their methodology, whereas yours may simply be a reflection of right-wing bias (where anything compared to your bias is “left”, and anything slightly left of centre is perceived as being further left).

There’s also a possibility that their markers for left and right are based on their own (American) interpretations. Not sure how this would reflect in the UK

I just hate politics. Lefties like you are obsessed with it and accuse everyone who doesn't want to live in an Orwellian distopia of being Hitler, it get's very boring.

I just hate politics. Righties like you are obsessed with it and accuse everyone who doesn't think Hitler was a bit of liberal of being a Stalin-loving snowflake millenial marxist. It get's (sic) very boring

Case in point. First time I’ve been called a leftie, I’ve voted Tory all my life with only a single exception.

You’re so far right even Centrists look far left to you.

Has anyone noticed that both the Guardian and the Daily Mail have been reporting the same stories recently, in some cases nearly word for word?

(Well, they do occasionally sell stories to each other but recently there has been more and more of this)

In the last week or so the Daily Mail have also abruptly switched from being staunch Brexiters to rabid Remainers.

They've really lost the plot - Most of their loyal readers are very vexed indeed at this bizarre development and are deserting them in droves for the Telegraph!

Apparently it's all due to the previous editor, Paul Dacre, resigning and the new editor being henpecked and threatened by his Remainer wife into changing their editorial stance.

Ah but you have to be careful there as the new editor of the DM, Geordie Grieg (I think that's his name) was previously editor of the Mail on Sunday and the new editor of the MoS is a Leaver. When you look at the online version, particularly on a Sunday, it's not possible to tell which version of the rag the article comes from

Exactly my point. I've also voted Tory all my life. I'm certainly not a leftie! I haven't been able to abide that bunch of losers since university - 1987-1990.

Isn't the American left still pretty right - if you get my drift?

Well it has been for most of my life but very recently it has taken a sharp turn to the left which is bewildering many long-term moderate Democrats. Looks to me like a cynical ploy to get the migrant vote.
