Is there any journalistic sites left that believe in actually doing fact checks for national covetage?

No. There's nowhere you can go.

Hmm, I guess the only place is like here on voat and jump into conversations and hope to come across people who are familiar with the subject.

Take any news story with an enormous grain of salt. Do your own digging for the truth.

It disturbs me that people who dismiss cable news as unreliable will then happily believe internet news, and shit like conspiracy theories and infowars.

Without actually going to, e.g. Syria and talking to or witnessing it for yourself, you have to get your information thru some media source. Reading primary sources, like reading Bills or U.N. reports, takes too long, so you never really know what's happening on the world stage.

Yet idiots here will confidently assert, "Mainstream media is lying! The real news is this thing I just read on Breitbart!" It frightens me that people are that gullible.

I spent watching US news from cable sources and from Japan's local news ... It's amazing how the same news is covered differently. 9/11 was a horror show and reversely the Fukushima internal coverage was a horror show.

So, I agree with your points.

It may have always been this way, like "history is written by the victors" type stuff, not as an absolute, but yeah to some degree always a bias.

There was and is always a bias but recently it's out of control.

Fact XYZ but yeah we have no proof.

It's great at confirming other sources though. The more against it they are, they more likely it is to be true.

Asking this on voat is like asking people if they like voat.

[–] WhiteRonin [S] 1 point 3 points (+4|-1) ago 

In a way but I'm not asking if voat isn't biased and I did mention that it was.

I tend to think voat has been red pilled but there is also now a growing neo-nazi breeding ground faction too.

That's only because everywhere else (except 4Chan) will likely kick them out.

"I tend to think voat has been red pilled but there is also now a growing neo-nazi breeding ground faction too."

Says the "redpilled" normy still worried about being called a racist nazi

Kevin strom is a " White nationalist, neo-Nazi, Holocaust denier, White separatist" according to wikipedia

Based on that you would certainly assume he wants to gas all jews

...

Yeah those evil neo nazi

Let's kill hitler once again, draft dodgers of the world, unite !

All Sides is your best bet as a news aggregator that labels each news source as neutral, left/right, or left/right wing.

That is modern! Awesome how they line up all 3 and you can see how the headlines are almost opposite!

Your best bet is probably to ignore all news altogether. Makes life simpler.

I have done that pretty much since the elections started

I listen to Rush and Levin (sometimes) and they are blatant conservatives so at least you know where to stand.

But then where do you find out what's happening in Europe and such? You have to stay ahead of the game.
