Hardly. Clearly they are left leaning but they back up their opinion with facts. For example calling out Republicans using half-truths against Jackson to try and make her look bad. That's some good reporting.

We need more of this kind of journalism to keep the facts out there and point out lots of pols twist things to fool the public.

Could you summarize the facts? "Calling out half-truths" is not an example of a fact.

It's a clear slant of D good, R bad, here's how we explain away what R's are saying because we think X.

There's a million left-wing outlets to do this, Buzzfeed News will not be missed.

I didn't see much "D good". There was a bit of "Specific R bad", but they only quoted that left-wing rags like the National Review to back up that what they said was bad. I won't repeat them, because they were less half-truths and more "meritless to the point of demagoguery" - (National Review).

If you think NYT and Washington Post are "left wing rags" then there is nothing I can do to convince you of any logic. Have a good day sir.

I was calling the National Review, founded by William Buckley, the famous conservative pundit, a left wing rag as a tongue in cheek way of saying even super conservative publications call it meritless.

I considered it as obvious sarcasm as calling Fox News a left-wing front of the Democratic Party.

Just because a source looks biased doesnt mean its not factual. Saying "republicans are saying awful things to/about XYZ person", if they were doing it, wouldnt be biased, it would be the truth.

And I wouldnt consider them "far left" anyway, just left of some other mainstream news sources.

Definitely, unfortunately the facts are usually scarce and twisted in those hit pieces.

Still far-left in my eyes, but you're not wrong in the general sense, simply because most MSM is far-left nowadays.

What do you consider far left? Mainstream media pushes for larger police budgets, high defense spending, defends billionaires, defends foreign policies that cause death, destruction, and misery all over the world, they are almost never actually critical of politicians and/or what they say in a way that matters. They defend massive corporations that are working against Americans, push fossil fuels (and for adjacent industries, like cars), push against single payer healthcare, and many other policies that are even just slightly left of center.

No part of our mainstream media is even close to far left, basically no major source in the world is.

At best, you might get a left wing opinion article in the NYT or something, but thats still going to be sandwiched between police propaganda and the current week's article on cancel culture.
