Again yahoo doesn't get it. Founder of media bias website: Conservatives don't get it.
That link goes to an article Most conservatives don't understand purpose of journalism, says founder of website on media bias.
The article is written by senior liberal political correspondent, John Ward.
Written about Matthew Sheffield.
In the article Mr. Ward states Seffield claims many ( exactlyhow many is many?) Trump supporters are gravitating away from fox news to more conservative channels that repeat the president's lies. Now exactly what other channel is on TV that is conservative? Sheffield claims conservatives don't know the difference between actual media and reporting institutions.
Well first of all apparently Mr. Sheffield grew up in a woke society. And apparently he and a few colleagues of his must have in the past 20 years decided among themselves to differentiate between the two. When I was in school there was journalism and editorializing. One published facts the other published opinions. And most students understood that. It has only been in the last decade that these lines have been blurred. And for Mr. Sheffield to claim that "truth for conservative journalists is anything that harms the left and it doesnt even have to be fact is an out right lie.
If he is calling out the one conservative channel on TV ( Fox News) he needs to criticize the liberal news media of the very same thing.
He claims most of the tens of millions of people who vote conservative are not deplorable. ( well I for one wear that moniker with pride, Billary Clinton branded us with that label so we should wear it proudly. Just as Hester Prinn learned to wear her brand proudly people started thinking the A stood for angel) That we are merely misled. Again the majority of Conservatibes are not misled we understand President Trump is an A** but he is a much better choice than what Clinton or Biden or Sanders or Harris or Warren would or will be. We have no delusions as to what a d who Trump is. But it's a better choice than what libs such as AOC or Talub or so many of the new "Progressives" in the Democrat party have to offer.
If he believes conservative news is nothing but an attack dog on the left then the liberal news is a trained gorilla trained to destroy any and all conservative ideas trained to suppress free conservative speech trained to ridicule and shout down and silence the conservative voice and if that doesnt stop us from voicing our ideals then sue people until they can't afford to defend themselves.
We understand the problem with conservative media. We just don't agree with how you presented your case Mr. Ward and Mr. Sheffield. When the left wants to play on equal footing then you have reason to complain. As I said before there is one major conservative TV news channel compared to at least a dozen liberal channels and probably close to the same percentage of newspapers. The only place it is close to being equal is on the internet. And now even internet providers as well as social media platforms such as yahoo have been silencing the conservative voice by censoring conservative ideas and suspending conservative accounts for posting their ideas. They have started to collaborate with each other by sharing information on account holders so they can suspend accounts if conservative ideas become to influential or popular.
The hearings on this very subject were posted here on yahoo and Zuckerberg refused requests to share his data as did the CEOs of twitter and google on who they censor with the senate committee that was holding these hearings. The left also had strong criticisms for these same companies. So they must be doing something wrong.
