realibrad: You are avoiding the question.

M: My opinion was that I was dealing with the more important aspects of your question, that understanding the nature of the question and the hopelessness of solution is more important than my answering the question. Why you ask is as important as the answer, that hope lies in seeing the hopelessness of our needs.

r: That is what you said.
M: It was actually what I said by way of suggestion, with emphasis on the suggesting rather than the saying.

r: How would you make something like that happen.

M: I made a suggestion as to what I thought should be The only way that I can see it happening is if others do to, enough others to make it happen.

r: You are purposing something there, and all I wanted was for you to flesh that out, because, from what I can understand what you want would be prone to abuse.

M: I proposed a suggestion of what I think should happen. I can try to flesh it out in a second, but first, what do humans do that isn't prone to abuse?

r: How do you get the right people to decide who is the other opinion? What opinions need to be rebutted? I presume you don't think that someone saying murder is bad and then needing someone to say its good, so explain.

M: My suggestion was made in regard to the bottom rung of the OP graph that refers to intentionally misleading and falsified information destructive of public discourse. Clearly that would need rebuttal by people in organizations toward the top of the list. I believe it doesn't happen because humanity is asleep. But the awareness is there sufficient to create the graph. It would just be a matter of legalizing its use prevent cult isolation on publicly owned and licensed frequencies.
 
AT LEAST THE ENQUIRER IS UNBIASED!

That's pretty amusing, considering the national enquirer bought unflattering stories about Trump for the express purpose of burying them.

While I think the person's overall placement of most of the outfits is reasonable it looks pretty bad when one they rate the Enquirer close to right down the middle after it has engaged in one of the most blatant acts of media bias you could possibly commit.

Come on man, everyone knows Batboy is nonpartisan.

The Atlantic has good long form too. Chief editor is David Frum, neo con and former W speechwriter, therefore "liberal" according to chart.

Vox also can have some really good long analysts from a liberal perspective.

Yes, Atlantic is very good, too, and definitely a bit more conservative than New Yorker (but they still do book reviews and other "Artsy" stuff, which I guess makes them part of the liberal elite by default). I used to subscribe to both, many years ago, but cancelled Atlantic because I didn't really have time to go through both of them and it just didn't have the same cost/content ratio that you get with New Yorker.
 
Looks about right, except CNN rated too highly. Also, MSNBC should join CNN, and rectangularly within the orange square, not straddling the shiz.
 
It's telling that none of our conservative posters have disputed the relative position of Fox, Breitbart & similar. They trust them anyway, apparently because it feels good to do so in some perverse way they don't really understand.

That's because they all know Fox News and InfoWars travel in the same swamp. Rubes are willing to live with their duplicity.
