PSA that shouldn't be needed

Townhall

Newsmax

The Blaze

Daily Caller

National Review

These are all right wing sites and no way should they be linked to with stories about democratic candidates. There are others. If you're not sure about a source, check it out before linking to it. It takes either carelessness or heavy duty cognitive dissonance to use such sources to criticize any democrat.

1. Indeed

People should consider sources like TPM and Think Progress.

[cali]

3. sure, as long as people understand that think progress is functionally as much an

arm of Clinton world as correct the record or media matters. I'm sure you agree that knowing if an organization or individual is backing a certain candidate is important information.

A functional arm of the Clinton world you say? Well....they appear to be very left-leaning when you look at their news stories.

You, on the other hand, seem to prefer more right-leaning sources:

10. sorry, it is indisputable that tp is backing Hillary.

And, no I don't favor right wing sources. And the one link you manage to desperately scrounge up, sure doesn't prove it. Real Clear politics publishes people across the spectrum and is frequently used as a source

You, on the other hand, favor pure Hillary propaganda. And it's amusing to watch you pretend that you don't support hill.

Me don't you have something else to post from that price of crap, David Brock?

[Cali_Democrat]

12. Let's take a look at some of the headlines from the author you posted, shall we?

Hmmm....I think I'll go with Think Progress.

13. Reality is a wonderful place to plant ones flag. Excellent and accurate rebuttals. nt.

[Metric System]

15. Another example: H.A. Goodman. Never heard of him before, but he's practically a Sanders surrogate

masquerading as a "journalist."

[m-lekktor]

2. I saw somebody use Ed Klein as an anti-Hillary source again the other day, speaking of this.

People also don't seem to realize that the Daily Mail is considered a loony rightwing source in the UK.

[cali]

4. you can't get deeper into the sewer than asshole Ed Klein

[Skwmom]

5. I'm finding the so called left wing sites are just as bad.

Plus, I linked to Daily Caller but it was an ABC video that was on the page.

[NCTraveler]

14. Why not just link to the ABC video and leave the right wing spin out of it. nt.

[Skwmom]

16. Because I didn't realize it was a "right wing" site.

You know, a good way to manipulate the masses is to have them believe the other side is always not telling the truth.

Now that I've seen the lack of journalistic integrity from left leaning publications, it's hard to really called out the other side ( you kind of lose your moral authority to do so).

[MindfulOne]

6. If the story is legit, a different site will have it.

That takes a bit of work but it's worth the effort.

Gives the content credibility, not that ABC News is pure and chaste...

But their better than the Blaze!

[hollysmom]

7. I tend to link them as sites that quote the Onion as a source.

it is true, I have found that many times.

[demmiblue]

11. Additional sites I have seen linked: Breitbart, Twitchy, RedState. n/t

[demmiblue]

17. Additional kick, because some seen drawn to those sites like moths to a flame. n/t

[Recursion]

18. NR's stories about GOP candidates can be enlightening

But, yeah, their take on our guys has no place here.

[SidDithers]

19. DU rec...

Sources matter.

Been saying that for years.
