Newbie here... Acceptable MSM Sources?

[Freeduhdum]

New forum user, excuse my ignorance. Was warned today to use "credible" sources. Now I suppose this may have been asked before, maybe time for an update?

 

Can anyone provide examples of what "Far right wing, far left wing sites that do not fact check" are?

 

Thank you.

This is a good place to start. If it reports way left or right, or that a site is untruthful etc. it is not considered credible.

Social media like Twitter and Youtube are also considered dubious if not from a mainstream news outlet.

Non according to the MAGA brigade on hrere- they are all commie liberal leftist vegan liars????

 

On a more serious note I personally find Al J to be the most unbias  national network at present- they do tend to do Yemen and a couple of other stories to death though.

 

 BBC has lost it and I have no time for the sensationalism and slickness of agenda driven US networks.

Good call and good question.......although many on here are not so keen on unbiased reporting and evidence.....good you are giving it a shot though......

We're in the middle of a global propaganda war so you can only cite state approved media sources. If the news outlet is pro-Trump,  pro-Brexit, anti-lockdown, anti-global warning etc... it won't be accepted. I even had my post deleted for posting CDC charts without providing a link.

Right. Good to know mate. Thanks for the heads up... feeling a bit flogged, if you know what I mean.

as you should. the demand for using a credible source or a link is totally one-sided here...wrong-think will not be tolerated...

Unfortunately, for the many bigots on TVF the only credible sources are ones that echo their  fixed opinions.

I stopped reading/commenting on the World News forum altogether. The discussions got completely ridiculous. Now I have time to knit that sweater I've been putting off for so long.
