A lot of that stuff looks like it is labeled OpEd or "analysis"


I read an OpEd piece from the new Republican Governor of VA in the Washington Post a few weeks ago. I've seen them from Mike Pence. They run them all the time. So what?

That same left-leaning paper also endorsed the Republican gubernatorial candidate in a nearby state in a recent election.

That doesn't strike me a "monolithically aligned against the right" to be honest with you. Maybe you should try being honest with yourself, its like you actually believe the garbage you spew here.

I will give you this, though. Traditional media has, for as long as I can remember, had a bit of a lefty bias, almost built in. Media is based in cities, writers tend to self-select from a certain set. Selection bias. It tends to be most noticeable in the editorial selection of what to cover and how much to cover it - made the Post almost unreadable in the early Trump years. There is clearly room for credible publications that tend to lean right - we have a few of those. Fox News is not one of them.

But, as usual, you're way off base and starting to sound a bit unhinged. Even worse, you're buying into the rhetoric of those seeking to gain financially by dividing us, which is unfortunate.
