How do you do this? I lost the ability to do this 15 years ago. How do you know you are not just comparing them to your own biases? Having limited time I employ this approach. I read American Conservative as it present arguments I can comprehend. I find other conservative new outlets too hard to read since there is so much asserted that ain't so. AM has less of this.
I also read Vox as my left-leaning source. Until this election I would find myself reacting adversely to AM and Vox articles in a roughly 2:1 ratio. This made sense as I was a self-identified New Deal liberal. Since the election both sites have been out of whack as far as I am concerned.
As for CNN, haven't they been a joke ever since Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370?
