Lol no, it’s not mature to debate obvious falsehoods

Bothsiding ? Oh we’re turning it into a verb now are we? OK. Cool.
I have to disagree with that. Not pretending to world is simple and presenting a balanced view of a story is a mature aged responsible thing to do as a news site. Obviously people will disagree but to hide information or distort it is not news. It’s dirty propaganda.
We need less of these kinds of site that amplify hate towards others and pretend the world is simpler than it is. No wonder we’re so fucked and divided as a country. The exact same thing Farage is doing to right wingers, sites like these are doing to left wingers.
I have easy answers for you. Oh and by the way everyone that disagrees with me is some form of evil.
FFS.

It’s a thing, though apparently I missed a hyphen. en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bothsidesism
So in other become corporate news and support elite class agenda of class divide by doing “fair” reporting that prevents any meaningful reform as a matter of policy. Great idea.
There are facts and then there is perspective. Facts should be presented accurately. Not hiding your perspective is the reporting is not “propoganda”. It’s more honest to be honest since everyone knows where you stand and can decide for themselves how they feel about it.
Can you source this? I’m not aware of them amplifying hate.
