Originally posted by Sour Masher View PostYeah, it still amazes me how big HP has gotten and how people still gravitate to it even though the majority of their content is created by unpaid, unvetted people with little to no credentials. And the site is more about clickbait than anything else. I guess it is all about SEO in terms of what sources get views."The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable." -NY Times

Originally posted by B-Fly View PostVox is not similar to HuffPost. HuffPost is tabloidy news curation and occasional opiniony original content.

Originally posted by Bernie Brewer View PostI’ve found Vox to be similar to HP but without the rage and trumpphobia. That said, I read Vox occasionally, but with the understanding that it’s lean is left."The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable." -NY Times

Originally posted by onejayhawk View PostYou presented it a liberal-leaning but objective, which is being kind. Sort of like taking Fox as fair-and-balanced.

Vox is clearly left, doesn't pretend otherwise, and provides quality reporting, opinion, and analysis from that perspective. If you believe that the best way to achieve politically balanced thought is to engage the best thinkers and the best arguments from each side, then Vox is a good choice from the progressive side. They're OK with me."When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

Originally posted by Bernie Brewer View PostWait, does this sound familiar? Some people only expose themselves to sites that support their own views and it further hardens thier view! Not saying B-Fly is this, but I’ve heard this for years about Fox News watchers but you rarely hear it about MSNBc watchers or HP, Vox, Politico readers.
