It's really the fault of the infotainment organizations, like Breitbart, Buzzfeed, Fox News, Mother Jones, etc, that have completely normalized heavy partisanship under the guise of trustworthy info sources. So when someone who is used to Alex Jones sees something on a major network, they're so brainwashed into thinking their way of thinking is normal and acceptable that center-oriented news organizations suddenly seem "left leaning" and "unfair."

Funny how quickly the right became a mirror image of everything they pretend to hate about the left.
If you are playing PC games and pandering, pretty safe to say you are definitively left of the centre. Where does the CBC slot on the spectrum? Can you name one mainstream media source that is unbiased and "decidedly" in the center on most issues? Also who decides and how?

You don't know where I get my news so don't speculate. I try to look at it all and then apply the cui bono principle.
