Come on post, you aren't usually this hard to get along with. Truth is subjective and even more so this day in age. That's my point.
Wherever it comes from I'm pretty sure I know "truth" when I see it and an agenda when I see it. There are certain places you simply aren't going to find truth CNN and MSNBC to name a couple. Fox is hit and miss, becoming more leftist as they go. "Truth" is becoming harder and harder to find.
yay! thanks!
it's true i'm pretty tired of trying to provide factual information for discourse and getting "that's not dailymail.co.uk so i won't bother reading it" for a reply.
i think that's dumb. JMO
of course you're not going to find articles about the hypocrisy in the 700 club on CBN. why would they cover news that shames themselves?
this one is the pdf link for the full research paper:
https://bfi.uchicago.edu/wp-content/uploads/BFI_WP_202044.pdf
it's 90 pages & very mathy. hence the earlier links to an article that kind of boils it down.
obviously you're not going to find criticism of far-right mainstream media on far-right mainstream media outlets. so it happens to be a VOX article. i was pointed to VOX by News&Guts aggregate service and followed links from there to the actual data.

because that would be introducing a lot more statistical uncertainty. you'd have all the lurking variables of 'CNN viewers' vs 'FOX viewers' and no way to know whether any observed effect was a product of being a regular viewer of the particular news outlet or a product of the particular commentator.
you'd also pretty much just be measuring democrat vs. republican stats because FOX is so overwhelmingly an obvious mouthpiece for the GOP -- but you'd be doing a poor job of examining that because CNN is not as partisan. you'd be better off comparing FOX vs. MSN, because MSN more closely mirrors the degree of partisan bias FOX has. still if you're going to all that trouble what you'd really want to do is just survey a random sample of people and ask them if they're members of the DNC or the GOP -- take out all the inherent variability of people getting news from some particular format and cut directly to actually comparing party division.
by identifying a time period through which one network had two roughly equally popular commentators that took divergent approaches to the topic, the researchers eliminated alot of error and were able to focus on the key question of the influence of mainstream media political commentary. this is good statistical design, screening out variability.

And CNN isn't the mouthpiece for the Dems?! Wow, that's quite the blind spot you have there. As Trump pointed out, other news shows were downplaying the virus outside of FOX. I'm not home so I can't put my hand on the article right now. But I can link you later. To try and draw the conclusion that Hannity caused deaths of his viewers is pretty ridiculous, and hypocritical. At least this thread is where it belongs, conspiracy.
Not to the level MSN is, no. It's my opinion that FOX and MSN are a closer equivalence in terms of being a biased propaganda machine than FOX & CNN are.
But this is all a completely inmaterial red herring. The point is that it was better statistical design to compare subgroups of the same Fox-viewing population than cross-broadcaster populations in order to study the effects of the treatment two different commentators had on their viewers relative to the pandemic.
It's not about partisan politics, but it would be if we compared populations from different mainstream networks. Maybe you would rather talk about worldly partisanship but the researchers were interested in the direct contributions of how talking heads portrayed the pandemic on the outcomes of the people who listened to them.
They could have just as easily sought two commentators from CNN or NBC or whatever. But FOX happens to have the largest viewing audience of all American networks, so it's better stats to choose from the very most mainstream of all the mainstream news: FOX. Always with larger numbers you get better statistical estimates.

What else did you expect?
If a person has not woken up to the fact that ALL the major media networks are not only corrupt, but lie through their teeth DAILY to protect, encourage, and enable the evil Democrats, then they are wilfully blind. And for any Christian to be wifully blind is extremely dangerous. These same media hate Christians and Christianity, but gladly promote every evil and perverse thing on earth. They should be shunned altogether.
What should concern people right now is that Mr. Trump has succumbed to the Swamp which he was supposed to drain. Gates, Fauci, Birx, etc. are all Swamp Dwellers, and he is working on their behalf for some strange reason. When Fauci corrected him about hydroxychloroquine publicly, he should have been fired on the spot. But we see that even after Rudy Giuliani exposed Fauci, Trump has done nothing. Now Trump is promoting Remdesivir (where Fauci has a conflict of interest with Gilead, and which is extremely expensive and not very effective) but allowing the DOJ another Witch Hunt to go after Dr. Zelenko who has actually come up a very effective combination of hydroxychloroquine with other medications.
Zero Deaths, Zero Intubation
Dr. Zelenko’s prescription for COVID-19
1- hydroxychloroquine 200mg twice a day for 5 days
2- azithromycin 500mg once a day for five days (people with heart problems should consider a different antibiotic)
3- zinc sulfate 220mg once a day for five days

I agree that Satan must be laughing his head off. I have lived to see a fair nunber of American Presidents both Republican and Democrat some were better than others none were perfect. But Trump is the worse and its nothing to do with which party he
belongs to its about the man himself. We are marking the 75th anniversary of the end of WW2 here. If Trump had been in charge
back then I would be writing this in German.
