Sources for news and posting their links

Gateway pundit, telegram and Twitterx are not reliable/credible news sources for politics. Why do some think they are?
They're propaganda outlets at best.
So why post their political stories and links.
They're on par with national enquirer.

Why does anyone think gateway Tele and Twitty are credible? They are pure propaganda outlets
Why does anyone thing ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, and New York Times are credible news sources when they have been proven liars?

If this is in fact a forum for debate, then there should be some ground rules. A major part of proof is credible citation for one’s contentions.

Education level notwithstanding, using a one liner or YouTube from X or any other social media source is merely the promotion of frivolous and often malicious gossip.

My interpretation of the OP is just that.

Without a level playing field, these threads are destined to go off track.

If you believe the back of a matchbook is truth and proof then don’t be outraged and butthurt when those who do the research call bullshit.

Make sense?

I only believe the news if it’s approved by 51 current and former intelligence officials.

That’s what makes them relevant and reliable news sources.

I agree with you. However, not sure if Fox News ever does a retraction.

That is complete bullshit. The only time they get it right is if it benefits their narrative. If it doesn't support what they want to push they ignore it or in many cases make shit. They may eventually issue a correction but only after the damage has been done and it no longer matters to the outcome they are in favor of. Prior to Elon buying twitter you lefties were all about using it as a source of info but now that it is an open forum it somehow becomes unreliable. The main stream media has a long way to go to regain their credibility after all the lies and bullshit they spouted during the last 2 elections.

When I see a political post supported by certain link sources i already know its opinionated propaganda. Because these sources hold zero accountability.
