WaPo obviously leans heavily left. Their articles are often littered with skewed facts and confirmation bias.
Every publication seems to have questionable journalists. But the most legitimate ones at least have some good ones.
For example, just because Fox News has someone terrible like Todd Starnes, doesn't somehow diminish the credibility and quality of people like Wallace and Baier.

No it doesn't. And it hacks partial facts and half truths into masterful spin jobs aka fake news

How hard was that?Did you read the orignal RS article?
I knew it was complete horseshite when I got halfway through the bullshite story but of course NBC led with it on their evening news.

What makes you think it's limited to journalists? They have bosses and their bosses have bosses. WaPo isn't just a bunch of journalists with some ideas. They have a narrative to feed their readers. They know how to make money. That's it.

Jeff Bezos is a cocksucker. I believe he was involved in persuading that judge in Washington over Trump's temporary travel ban. Also has a CIA contract for some reason. He hates Trump and pretty sure he's pushing the BS news.

Breitbart posts plenty of true stories that the rest of the "real media" ignores.
Do you think there might be another possible reason that the "real media' ignores stories Breitbart reports .
Could it be that Breitbart doesn't report "real stories"? The only websites that re-report Breitbart stories are the Infowars of the internet. It's great for Breitbart's "clickbait" business plan.
Breitbart is 90-95% pure bullshite. I dare you to post a Breitbart story that has one legitimate sourse on a material fact.

If you beliebe this is just natural human bias and not a concerted effort to undermine conservatism, you are naive. I'll assume you are just gravitating towards contrarianism.

The WaPo is complete fricking garbage.
They could tell me that the sun will rise in the East tomorrow and I would doubt them.
frick WaPo!
