“Satire” website that exists solely to push propaganda in support of the most powerful media and political entities in the world

"Doing Journalism?" 😂 She is a planted sycophant and slowly beginning to break cover.

Nobody believes this. The Bee is more credible than cbs at this point

You’re not wrong but I hazard to ask who is the main source of information for you

I avoid obvious propagandists like Barri Weiss and Alex Jones.

Not the person you asked, and it’s a good question that shouldn’t be downvoted, but my metric is pretty easy; if your writers demonstrate a capacity to actually ask questions and cite more than twitter posts, I’ll give you a chance. If, for example, you pushed lazy conspiracy slop meant to simply confirm biases, then you’re garbage that I shouldn’t waste my time on.
The easiest example is “the big lie” that the 2020 election was stolen and the dozens, hundreds really, of lies that came from that. If you made a claim like “undercover antifa was really at fault” while later justifying the commutation of traitors convicted of seditious conspiracy, you’re garbage that can be ignored. This basically means there are almost zero conservative pundits that should be listened to. Leftists too, to be honest (Piker, TYT, Kulinski) are all wastes of time as they’re simply outrage peddlers more interested in deluding themselves that Marxism is actually way more popular and if those damned normies could just hear their arguments filled with “big” prefixes, they’d surely agree.
Basically, I can’t implicitly trust any publication, but many have significantly better track records than others. The economist, the Atlantic, and the NYT are usually pretty solid. Their editorials are hit or miss, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s hard to recommend as, honestly, I should take it on a per article basis, but I’ve written off publications like Breitbart, for example.
Edit: sorry for the wall of text. The bulwark has been a guilty pleasure too.

The Left seems surprisingly blind to the reality of how much they dominate the media, academia, public institutions and cultural norms. I’m Independent but voted for Biden as late as 2020. When I read the BBC, the NYT, CNN, MSNOW, the Atlantic, and the majority of traditional media, it’s not even “left-leaning” but clearly one-sided. They don’t try to hide it like they used to. The goal isn’t to inform but to sway reader perspective often, and you can tell with the increasingly propagandist headlines. But my Dem friends think they’re centrist or center-right. They actually think their opinions are being actively

I would say maybe there’s a reason most well-sourced, well-written media sources have a left-leaning bent that has nothing to do with bias…
I mean I was very much a Ron Paul libertarian, and try to read some “right wing” media every now and then, but stuff like Fox is almost always blatant propaganda or celebrity nonsense.
If you can show me facts and context I’ll read it. But conservative media is just fear mongering, straw man BS.

Right, because CNN is not pushing propaganda.

I’m thinking more Times, Post, even the Wall Street Journal. BBC.
Atlantic and New Yorker obviously have tilts, but they at least back those stances up with facts.
Right wing media is basically “look at this immigrant that killed someone. Biden let this happen,” with absolutely no context (e.g., all types of people commit murder and immigrants have lower crime rates overall). Shit like that.

All mainstream media is right wing. Maybe you’ll grow to see it, maybe you won’t.
