    You’re on the nose with that, which is why ground.news is so vital especially now. You can read about the same story from multiple perspectives and often they’ll have a handy synopsis that has key info from all the writings.

    Or for that matter, see through the flood and read about things that matter a lot more.

      Well what ground news wants to do -critical evaluation and media literacy- is so vital.

      But ground news deciding on what exact position on the spectrum a source is, seems to achieve the exact oposite: make people depentend in questioning and finding a variety of sources.

      Nowadays everything needs to happen in an instant.

      If theres a solution that only takes half a snap, that will be the only relevant choice for the mass. Thats why Im instantly asking, because just today I referred to this source to someone else as a might-be-bad example but instantly realized, I will have to ask this on the next situation (now)

      Anyways thanks for the correction!
