C'mon now. Sure you do, fella. Popped yer head in, dropped a few insults, feeling strong...

Sad.
I wonder if Fox news are part of the 'mainstream narrative' or do they get a pass cos they support orange man? so many questions. Thing is I actually respect MAGAs who can engage in debate.

This whole “mainstream narrative” talk often just serves to dismiss opposing views. If Harris somehow wins, these same people will probably be calling the election “stolen” since anything that doesn’t align with their perspective is branded a conspiracy.
 
In fact no news outlet should ever be endorsing any candidate, it's not there job to influence but to report (at least that's what reporting should be).

Same as how the S*n over in the UK used to try to influence elections in favour of the Tories.

In the world we live were it's now commonplace not sure why the editor thinks she has the say over the owner in who if any gets endorsed though. She's just an employee.
It would be great if we had true editorial independence, globally, but we do not and so endorsements can provide valuable context for readers about where a publication stands. It’s a fine line between reporting and influencing, and many appreciate knowing a paper’s perspective, especially in a polarised climate. When outlets like Fox clearly back candidates like Trump, it creates an uneven playing field. The Harris team and others need some form of parity in endorsements to ensure diverse viewpoints are represented. It’s crucial for the public to access balanced information, especially with nefarious influences like Russia and other deceptive actors trying to sway opinions. It would be great if these billionaire media owners and dictators kept their noses out of the voting public’s decision-making process, but here we are.
 
So, you’re implying I should already know the “mainstream narrative”? Not exactly helpful. It seems like you’re unwilling to explain your own view, which feels dismissive. You're basically saying, “If you don’t know, you’re stupid” just sidesteps the question. Instead, how about pointing me to some resources or reliable voices on the topic? Sources like Tim Pool, Tucker Carlson, or Alex Jones perhaps?
If you see 10 different reports criticising Trump, using twisted and manipulated "facts", that are all repeated verbatim, and the same sources dont acknowledge anything wrong with Biden or Harris, then yeah, its a media narrative.

Are you just now realizing that news outlets, particularly in America, tend to have a bias towards either the left or the right? Are you 15? I notice how you left out Fox news, are they reliable? Or does Murdoch get a pass?
CNN, MSNBC, ABC.

FYI I don't believe anything that comes from either cnn, abc, fox etc.
 
What? I was asking you
Oh, the View as well.

Basically anyone who calls Trump an "Existential threat to democracy" while running cover for politically motivated attacks and refusing to acknowledge anything wrong from either of the other 2 hopeless fools he has been up against.

And its also really helpful to compare people to Hitler as well, like he didn't already do the job and avoided any of the catastrophic things they guaranteed would happen if he won last time.

Like i say, if you dont see it, or refuse to see it, then its already too late.

Honestly mate, it's not a trick question. Where should I go for more accurate news and information? What channels would you recommend?
