So I lurk a lot, both keep sane during the week, and to pick up some story ideas. I wanted to make this post a while ago and chickened out, but seeing that post about Maddow fawning over Biden's new dog made me want to try with this account again.

US media is absolutely a big-L Liberal institution. But you'd be surprised how many socialists, or socdems at least, write for smaller and mid-size newsrooms. So AMA about trying to be a reporter with leftist views in a decidedly anti-left racket, or about the inner workings of American news outlets that aren't CNN, MSNBC or Fox.

    Same. I can’t stand the podcasts where all the dudes fart and burp into mics, but Citations Needed is just right.

      I listen to WTYP and Citations Needed so that covers all my bases pretty well

      I listen to Citations Needed when I want to learn and be very engaged. I listen to West Wing Thing if I want something more entertaining, especially when I’m doing a monotonous video game task like grinding or map clearing.

      I used to listen to Bad Faith a little bit, but that got exhaustingly liberal and awkward because of Virgil shenanigans.

        Luckily Virgil has escaped the third dimension so he's not around making it awkward atm
