Then there's the article from the right wing religious monarchist telling people to not vote even though he votes. And as I linked above, they're even trying to make being a felon sound less severe.
In addition to that, the pundit class has lost their minds.
I've been getting better coverage from the Guardian because it actually offers analyses of what's going on politically. I would never condemn all mainstream press, but I will limit which news sources I read.
As I said before, some of the best coverage and analysis is scattered across dozens of substacks.

It's absolutely fair to make reasoned observations on outlets that have revealed themselves to be birds of a feather amongst places like the NYT, NY Post, and Fox News. But when every single outlet big and small are reporting in the same ballpark, dismissing them all just because of your gut is straight up conspiracy theory.
I'm legitimately confused on what the moderation policy is on posts broadly saying as much about the reporting on Biden here. Surely "every media/news outlet" is conspiring against Biden has to fall under hawking conspiracy theories or no?
