The search giantâs "experiments" see sources of questionable quality being promoted over mainstream websites in some cases
In some cases filtering out mainstream news publications from search results is also resulting in lower-quality publications being promoted, including a news website known for spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories.
A conservative (short) history of media bias with a solid conclusion:
Today, then, we are back to where we were in the past. Citizens have numerous options for news and information, and numerous alternatives that challenge, balance, and correct the partisan biases of the mainstream media. More importantly, this new media world means that in a democracy ruled by the people, the responsibility for sorting out truth from partisan spin lies where it should, with the free citizens who have the civic duty to seek out and evaluate information before voting for a party or policy. Media bias is no longer an excuse for neglecting that responsibility.
The solidity of this conclusion put's your alter-ego's IQ well above 85. Should I be sorry to say this?

I recommend that all of you born with FASD and sporting an IQ of 85 or less to read the above article.
Remember the media is a blob. And it is out to getcha.
This is showing... I guess you must have studied media-sociology and habilitated in psychiatric telepathy on a grant from China. Wow! Other than that I cannot but diag-noze a heavy form of TDS with strong phobic traits, highly reactive towards any conservative thinking, especially when it comes in relation to media-analyses...
The video has nothing to do with so-called media bias. But it is a great, thought provoking interview and I thank you for posting it SirD.
Peterson's response to so-called Media bias might be to focus on the bias on the individuals.
Minor quibble. Marxist-inspired/influenced leftists come in all shapes and sizes. Towards the end, the old-style Communists were increasingly conservative and free market friendly. It is the Neo-Marxist ones and others who simply feed off feelings of envy that do the most damage.
This could have been filed under Identity Politics. Or ....... Identity politics underpinned by vacuous virtue signalling.
This kind of in-depth journalism is similar to what is called investigative journalism elsewhere. There is all kinds of great investigative/in-depth journalism in various elite media throughout the world. NPR, PBS, NYT, WP, G&M, CBC, Radio-Canada, The Atlantic are just some media outlets that come to mind that are capable of this kind of journalism.
I put this interview in this thread because not only is the content fascinating moreover this is a text book case of what journalism should be. Kudos to the interviewer, she gives hope that true journalism is not dead and of course kudos to Dr. Peterson who I am thankful to have found my public voice. Like Dr. Peterson, I am not interested in being placed in a group and try to avoid identity. I am grateful to you and others (Thomas Sowell, Milton Friedman, Ben Shapiro and to a lesser extent Rubin, Larry Elder and even Joe Rogan) who articulately speak for me as much as anyone can. Keep your shoulders square, head up and your eye on personal responsibility.

Talk to me if you actually watch and listen to the whole thing.
So yeah, I'm not going to sit through 25 minutes of whatever may be there. This may have some merit, but I'm not talking about just this video. I've seen many comments/posts/breathless news anchors talking mostly about the 'give me a break' comment, but also about how "he's tired", and several other re-hashed bits from the campaign. All mostly from people who 4 years ago were shouting "you have to give him a chance, you'll see". I'm not a Biden champion here (or anywhere else), but I am a Trump detractor. I did 'give him a chance' for a couple months, but he proved most people right and gave us 4 years of exactly what was expected. Now that things have flipped, pretty much everyone's positions have flipped as well. Gosh, look how fast the republicans found their old stance against deficits! Look how fast the Dems decided that the majority does have powers too. It's all pretty predictable, and honestly a bit entertaining. I'm still making plans for my future that don't rely on either party.
