> Politico used Lean Left language to describe Jan. 6: “damning findings,” “deadly riot,” “violent siege,” “threat to democracy,” “insurrection,” “Trump’s crusade.”
> A category on the website was labeled “Insurrection Fallout," which is Lean Left framing of Jan. 6; a reviewer in the center noted a "heavy anti-Trump focus."
So, no one should criticize him ever? Be like Claude - “You're absolutely right! about everything”? While almost always wrong about everything!!
FWIW, Politico is also anti-cancer, anti-pollution, and anti-rape. Just more of their systemic bias I suppose. On the bright side, there are an increasing number of alternative “news” sources that that the opposite positions on those things.
You mean factual? Is that what you meant to say?
I love that any news agency that doesn't explicitly carry water for this admin is considered "anti-Trump".
This does not follow at all. People really can be fair and dispassionate on topics they disagree with. I can, for example, write a "why you should use PHP" article even though I don't like PHP.
I think the automatic assumption that people will be dishonest to fit their political leanings says more about your mindset than Politico. Or rather: alleged political leanings since it's not my impression that Politico is all that left-wing, but that's a secondary point.
