You read the article right? Would you say that it was written in an unbiased manor? Let's be honest, it was a poorly written piece of propaganda masquerading as journalism. Criticizing that isn't a "sustained assault". Its also quite clear that the left is no longer liberal in any way. Because liberals would oppose this type of censorship


Writing from a point of view only further necessitates due diligence, assuming the author wants to be convincing.

The alternative would be ultra-dry, wire-style reporting, That does exist because there's some demand from the left and center for that kind of journalism. Though I see little demand on the rights for just-the-facts reporting.


Funny, I see rating dropping for the networks which engage in the kind of propaganda masquerading as journalism that you claim has demand. What you don't seem to understand is that only worked because of the credibility that decades of just-the-facts reporting built up. Now that that is gone, so are the ratings. And doing more hit pieces doesn't reverse that. What would reverse that is just-the-facts reporting which builds up credibility. Also, on YouTube, the channels with the largest consistent viewership are often the ones that try to be unbiased, not your yellow journalism.
