    Newsnation is doing that thing where they try to be “unbiased” but still hired Chris Cuomo.

    They’re doing that Semafor thing where they walk the line the first few years, but still selectively report/omit things so they don’t get dinged on things like MBFC.

    They used to be WGN, and own a shit ton of local stations in the rust belt as well, so I’m predicting they pull some Sinclair shenanigans eventually too.

    It’s not the biggest problem in America right now, but I’ve been keeping an eye on them with how often they’re being posted now.

        And if you look at MBFC they lean left.

        Because they’re going right up to the line but not crossing it. It’s meant to be a source that can’t be immediately dismissed
