gawker.com...they don't even try to hide their progressive bias
Poast new message in this thread
Date: September 9th, 2010 7:42 PM Author: Titillating Boiling Water Deer Antler i've been a fan of gawker.com for my pop-culture news for a while, but i despise anytime they cover a political story because their editorial bias shines write through.
http://gawker.com/5634211/democratic-centrists-want-all-rich+people-tax-cuts-extended
you don't need to get past the first two paragraphs before the author starts labelling people who support tax cuts for the rich with negative connatations and descriptions.
i just found it too irritating to leave alone this time.
thanks. |

Date: September 11th, 2010 7:34 PM Author: Titillating Boiling Water Deer Antler I'll admit I'm a fan; it's a good blog to go to for less serious postings when i want a break from real world. And it's a good way of staying up on mundane pop culture. But it's political bias is just a distraction. The blog should keep out of politics; it's below them.

|
Date: September 11th, 2010 7:40 PM Author: Titillating Boiling Water Deer Antler God you're a fool. If you think Glenn Beck rediscovered that word then you're buying into someone else's bullshit.
I've always seen bloggers on the site generalize themselves as progressive, so I'm using their own label.
And lastly, the article is about further leftist democrats complaining about more center-of-the-aisle democrats' positions...so it's not incorrect to label those complaining as progressive (i.e. beyond the liberal tittle and into the progressive mindset) |

Date: September 11th, 2010 8:16 PM Author: cerebral digit ratio juggernaut Calling it stupid doesn't require that it bothers me. Merely an observation, chief.

Date: September 11th, 2010 8:26 PM Author: Titillating Boiling Water Deer Antler Haha I appreciate the dual, possibly sarcastic, compliments (I'm honestly not sure if you're kidding or serious).
Valid, you calling it stupid doesn't necessarily mean it bothers you. But it's not a jump in logic for me to make that assumption.
And seeing it as stupid is only your own opinion. Im sure others would agree with you, but I, for example, find it more amusing than stupid. |
