Speaking of cherry picking, I wouldn't use vox as reliable source for bipartisan data.

Do you have an example of Vox being dishonest?

I'm not sure this answers the question. Clearly Vox has a progressive (maybe originally neo-liberal?) editorial bias, but that may or may not mean that they have dishonestly distorted facts. There is a big difference between editorial bias and dishonest reporting!

speaking of cherry picking, I wouldn't use autocomplete suggestions as a source for bias. Has anyone on this thread claimed bias in the search results?

I've seen plenty of politifact and snopes fact-checks that go against the conspiracies that you guys seem to think are underway in those types of organizations.
