I know MediaBiasFactCheck is not a be-all-end-all to truth/bias in media, but I find it to be a useful resource.
It makes sense to downvote it in posts that have great discussion – let the content rise up so people can have discussions with humans, sure.
But sometimes I see it getting downvoted when it’s the only comment there. Which does nothing, unless a reader has rules that automatically hide downvoted comments (but a reader would be able to expand the comment anyways…so really no difference).
What’s the point of downvoting? My only guess is that there’s people who are salty about something it said about some source they like. Yet I don’t see anyone providing an alternative to MediaBiasFactCheck…
Oh there’s been plenty of substantial criticism, with examples. If you’re not seeing them in this comment section it’s because you don’t want to.
I was just talking about our conversation. “Conservative!” “Corporation!” “Opposite of a corporation!” “Has a team!”
Not particularly substantial stuff. I did see your other, much better comment in here, and left a reply.
Good, now you know half of where it’s coming from. Keep looking around the comment section.
Yeah, I’d rather not. Some interaction with you is plenty, you’re very trolly.
