Concerns over “far-right conspiracy theories and racism” have long troubled the Guardian regarding X

 

I feel like "have long been pushed but the Guardian, due to X not toeing the progressive line" would be more appropriate.

i look forward to Musks version of google, so tired of searches only giving  msm BS results, so corrupted and bias to the left establishment. really hoping Trump, musk, rfk, Tulsi and his cabinet expose them all.. 

spot on!

I contributed a lot of threads on the sub forum. If I didn’t choose Fox or NYP in the search terms , it would resulted in the bias media’s coverage!

That would of stopped me from posting !

The Guardian beats right wing news by far, being ranked one of the most read newspapers in the world.

In fact no right wing newspaper is in any ranking. Even in the US.

Right leaning are, which leftists also call right wing as part of the fearmongering. The Wall Street Journal is mentioned in your linked reference. I doubt you know which way all the others lean. The Guardian isn't exactly far left, so far as I know. Far left "newspapers" like The Morning Star or The News Line also have poor circulation and even depend on donations to stay alive.

I suspect The Guardian feels that the negative readers' responses and the fact checking in Community Notes, now that X has free speech, did more harm than good by exposing their "news" as leftist nonsense. Such exposure by alternative right-leaning media, including mainstream FOX, is responsible for the misfortunes of CNN and MSNBC, now laying off staff, including, supposedly, some of the higher profile contributors.

We already know that! You specifically focused on Fox and the NYC and ignored all the others! 🤣

Yes free speech followed by a lawsuit if companies decide they don't want to spend there advertising money next to bastions of truth like Alex Jones

 

You've got to be joking, surely? A lawsuit to tell a company where to spend its money?

I really wish you'd posted a link so we could see what she actually said instead of what you want us to believe she said.

 

The Guardian is not a suburban newspaper.

Do you think he would bother if it was going to give the same results? Think before typing

TBH, I didn't even know (and still don't) that he was planning a search engine. Good luck to him, it'll wind up like Twitter.

What, you mean with an advertising boycott, which is being sued, also just goes to further prove the mainstream establishment bias.

"We only want our side of the story heard"

Cable channels lowest views in history, bye bye cnn, MSNBC and all that other trash.

Does the fact that they are being sued somehow mean they are wrong?

Most people get their news on demand from YT these days.

The Guardian seems to pop up in my X-feed all the time. I never stop and look at it, however. It's entirely canned agitprop. Look, Fidel used to send me Granma back in the 60s, and it had more editorial freedom than the Guardian.

You know enough already, google it for yourself if you need more such blather. Reading the rag itself, you can find plenty more along the same lines. Yawn.

You're giving right wing too much credit read are you sure? 

Hahaha!

Elon bought twitter for power not free speech.   Hope it crumbles.   Anyone who thinks fox is MSN is what did we learn in another thread today?  A netizen or lower! 

The only intelligent person on fox is Jessica Tarlov.  The rest are just fowl.

why are they boycotting? 

 

Something to do with business. I can't remember what they said it was. I think it was bad.

Go read it for yourself or ask your mama to do so for you. No spoon feeding.

 

You started off mentioning "right wing" with no examples. WOT?

 

But I didn't say The Guardian is left wing. Do you reading of the post you responding to, DUH. In fact I said specifically, The Guardian isn't exactly far left, so far as I know.

Thanks for sharing your opinion!

Freedom of speech is enshrined in our Constitution, it is an American thing , apparently.

The richest man in the world helped maintain , my country’s values.

 Now he and others will take on wasteful spending starting with Government Bureaucracy ,by using their skills to create a proper audit .

We the People are fed up with crazy Government spending of our Tax dollars!

 

What country are you from!
