Why would you think the NYT is credible in any sense? They literally apologized to readers for misleading them all, over their pre election coverage, right on up to the election.

Here's another example of their ridiculous coverage. They are, along with CNN and WAPO, the fake news.

Alex Marlow has admitted on several occasions that Breitbart is dishonest and at time skews it’s coverage to protect Trump regardless of the situation. Their coverage of the Roy Moore Senate campaign was down right criminal. The fact that you use that as your source shows your gullibility.

Don’t even think to use Rush Limbaugh as a source either because he too has admitted to being dishonest. Same goes for Alex Jones.

Holy crap Kap, you better step up your game. This ain’t amateur hour.

It's actually the most credible news source in America, but that's ok.

Maybe you should just find us more conspiracy theories.

Weren’t you talking about food shortages earlier? This is an interesting article from Reuters

Lols.. You didn't address my point at all.

Regardless of whether Breitbart is biased, read the article and then let's debate the NYT piece.

Breitbart can be a topic for later.

If you really want to know how Bernie people are actually thinking... This guy encapsulates the socialist block of the left.

So what did you do there? Discredited the NYT by pasting an article which uses a FOX news story as it's source.

But no, you're not a FOX guy. I've been reading the Times for 30 years. They investigate everybody. You'll see some unflattering articles about (D) Cuomo. That's why they're credible. They aren't party sympathizers, they'll go after anyone ( yes Obama) .

Are they a little left of centre? Yes. If they were reporting in Canada alone, they'd probably be considered a little right of centre.

My wife's friend's farm has planted 1/3 of it's normal crop this year due to labour shortage. Things can change in a hurry but I imagine food inflation will be very high this year.

You also talked about herd immunity. Here’s a very scary article.

https://nationalpost.com/...thought-a-new-study-finds

The article highlights that it was once thought that 55 per cent of the population would have to be infected or vaccinated to achieve herd immunity. Recent research results suggest that the virus is much more contagious so now that number rises to 82 per cent to achieve herd immunity. That’s crazy.

There is no doubt that the NYT soft sold a unflattering story about Biden. That’s obvious. But what I like about the NYT is that they questioned and called out the editor for it:

https://www.google.ca/amp...e-new-york-times.amp.html

No hiding or doubling down. They investigated themselves and owned it. They may be bias at times but that’s a whole lot different than blatant lies to purposely mislead. That is what we were discussing; creditable news sources. Can you honestly say that about Breitbart or any far right publication?

The only thing I think that might be in our favour is a much larger portion of the population may have been infected than we think.

To me anyways, antibody testing is the key.

Bill Gates and other eugenicists are calling for tracking, like with a chip, people. That's just another step in enslaving humanity. Antibody testing is just another step on the way. They admit their vaccines aren't tested for safety... Contain fetal DNA, and other things you have to wonder about.

Just another article pointing out how Bernie supporting leftists aren't going along for the ride.

The democrats are the war mongering neo lib corporatist party. No diff than the neo cons.

Stop. You sound dumb.

You asked me to answer your question about NYT’s bias reporting. I reluctantly took the time to read your Breitbart link and answer your question. Now it’s your turn to answer mine.

Name a right wing news publication that provides fair and accurate reporting. Not just opinion pieces to deflect, mislead, and outride deceive.

Just now you posted a link to Gateway Pundit. This is an extreme right wing opinion site that is known to be bias, promoting conspiracies and has been cited for numerous instances of publishing false opinions under the guise of “news”.

You’ve already been essentially tossed from the Canuck thread for posting idiotic comments. Don’t continue that trend here.

Stay on topic and answer the question Kap.

I think I can answer this for him.

All of the media we read is controlled and these radical opinion pieces are the only way we can find out the truth!!

you're all just sheep listening to the mainstream media.

only a true lemming free thinker ignores the first 97 experts so he can blindly believe a pseudo-expert on youtube who tells him something that makes sense to his med-school school of hard knocks educated mind.

the rest of you are so gullible!

Did you watch the fall of cabal?

I've watched most of it, what a propaganda piece. The jumps they make with half truths and others without any evidence at all to try to show us how Trump is the saviour and Democrats are evil is mind boggling.


Imagine your top source being wikileaks, with all of the "evidence" edited to suit the narrative.

Of course, they prey on people's fear of children getting hurt to feed the paranoia.

Did you know Mel Gibson was ostracized by Hollywood not because of his anti-semetic remarks but because he called out the child sex trade as well as the blood drinking and flesh eating?

Spending $20k telling people how awesome you are.

At least it wasn’t as bad as Bloomberg spending $900m doing the same.
