Define "neutral" and I can find one, because they've been reported on and named publicly for 50 years.

Here's a 50-page summary from Loyola Law School: https://lmu.app.box.com/s/uci2ir4mkpudtvvfp7z8iu4kv1gre1dj

This is a better source. It also shows these cliques are on a spectrum from over-the-top comradery to violent gang behaviour.

Consider the Media Bias Chart https://adfontesmedia.com/gallery/

You can see that Rolling Stone skews left and is lower than the peak of reliability.

There are ex-members of that police department giving video interviews about the Executioners gang threatening and killing innocent people.

I dont understand how you can claim media bias is at the core of this story.

This is not my claim. I am replying to someone who said above

> Define "neutral" and I can find one

I think I misunderstood their comment to say "I don't understand why you are claiming Rolling Stone is not neutral". Sorry.

Thanks for the link. That largely matches my perceptions, so it at least passes my smell test.

That said, I find it rather odd the absolute highest quality news achievable is...ABC15 in Arizona. Kinda feel they should leave local stations off altogether.

Hard to know what "center" is in a country where even the "left" is arguably to the right of the "right" in Europe. The US's "right" is so-far-extreme-right, there's no similar extreme in Europe. All as far as I can tell (not an expert).
