I think you mean leftist, or radical liberal. I have yet to see a moderate liberal display these qualities, but correct me if I'm wrong. And by "always believe what the media tells you", are you talking about Fox News, or credible news sources, because the term "media" is so darned broad that it could really mean anything.

Just out of curiosity, have you ever actually compared an article on Fox with one on another mainstream outlet about the same topic?

For instance, compare these two articles:
https://www.foxnews.com/world/north-korea-rebuilding-rocket-launch-site-reports-say
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-47465082

Is the Fox article less thorough or misleading compared to the one from BBC? Legitimately curious.

I don’t watch or read BBC, so I’m not sure. But compared to say Politico, USA Today, or Newsweek, Fox News isn’t very reliable

Again, how so? The opinion pieces will be completely different because of the political slant, but actual NEWS pieces are virtually identical regardless of where you read them. That was the point I was trying to get across with the two links.

Let's try your way, then.

https://www.newsweek.com/north-korea-rebuilding-dismantled-nuclear-launch-site-after-trump-kim-summit-1352946

https://www.foxnews.com/world/north-korea-rebuilding-rocket-launch-site-reports-say

Actually read both these articles, and please let me know how Newsweek's is more accurate.

Okay, I read both articles. Guess I was wrong. I was expecting Fox News to proclaim Trump as savior again (like they usually do), but I stand corrected.

That's what I mean by opinion pieces. Fox slants conservative, many others slant left. But those are their OPINIONS. To think that all fox viewers are uninformed is simply not accurate. They get the same information that you do on world events when it comes to EVENTS. You're confusing "reliable news" for "agrees with my politics". This applies to conservatives who think people who watch CNN are all brainwashed idiots too. Both sides are getting the same information, but different opinions on how to view that information.

Thanks for clearing that up. I had that mindset of “CNN is fake news because it disagrees with me”. I’m still trying to dismantle it
