SSDD, I am at a loss on how to answer this post. Clearly we have even less in common than i thought. If you can sit there and imply that the MSM ignored things like Hunter Biden's laptop, emails and all, within WEEKS of a major election, was them deeming it 'false' or 'not important', then we have very little to discuss.
I have come to the conclusion that you are simply a well educated fellow who will do little beyond using your education in an effort to support Democrat talking points without any attempt at real discussion.
So you can consider this a 'win' if you want, because I am withdrawing from this particular discussion. I admit to being unable to debate effectively with someone who chooses to consider his personal 'logic and reasoning' as more factual than actual provable facts. My education and experience is in science and engineering. I deal with facts. I simply can not debate with someone so 'intellectual', at least in their own minds.
As to comparing RW news vs. LW news, my opinions are based on evidence that I have seen over the last couple of decades, which you have made clear you will not accept as valid evidence. Therefore I will do some research and when I have something, I will start a new topic. Look for it in March.
i wish you well, and hope you stay safe and happy. May God bless you, and bring you Home.

Ah, now we get to the core of the issue. Because the MSM ignored baseless conspiracy theory, they are biased.
A. We do not even know for sure that the laptop in question was even Hunter Biden's laptop in the first place
B. Many "damning things" were SAID to be found on this laptop but never fully revealed, in fact, Tucker Carlson GREATLY hyped that he would reveal the contents but then NEVER DID.
C. The owner of the shop who eventually admitted that he couldn't verify that the laptop was indeed Hunter Biden's laptop, he was in fact a Trump supporter. The lawyer, Rudolph Giuliani, that the shop owner gave the laptop to who EVENTUALLY handed it over to the FBI, was IN FACT, Trump's lawyer. Giuliani had the laptop for quite some time BEFORE turning it over to the FBI, and finally, the FBI DID NOT file ANY charges against Hunter Biden. Have I missed any of the key elements? If so, please enlighten me. Obviously the entire story was legitimate and the MSM chose not to run with it... Give me a break with these damned CTs...
As for your assertion that I will do anything to further the cause of the Democrats, normally you would be mistaken and technically you still are. I WILL NOT lie for them. But, I will grant you this, I will do quite a bit for them, something that wouldn't have been true even as recently as during Obama's presidency. The reason why is this. The Republican party is NO LONGER the Republican party, it is transforming into the DJT party. A party so fringe that it threatens the American way of life and even what little democracy America has. I am not FOR authoritarian dictatorships. IF you are, there are already countries with just such leadership. Instead of converting the America that I love into one, why not move to the one you like best? Why convert THIS America into one that will fall into authoritarian rule just to satisfy what I believe to be the minority of it's citizens?
As for your assertion that I shy away from a real debate or discussion, if you have been paying attention, you would realize that couldn't be further from the truth. Let's discuss this, WITHOUT of course baseless CTs mind you.
I notice that you claim a "science and engineering background and a base of facts. If that is so, why is so much of what you are saying being based in feelings, CTs, talking points and propaganda? I am ALL FOR facts, bring the FACTS, leave the talking points, lies, CTs and propaganda behind and let's move forward on facts alone.
You further assert that I am the one that left reality behind. Not true. I have looked into the reality of our situation, researched it, used reliable source of information, used logic, reasoning and even mere "sniff tests" to ascertain the truth of the matters. The truth is that some RW media admits the truth, at least in their news department and to some extent, even Fox "News" does as well, primarily on non-political issues that HAVEN'T been politicized by "culture war politicians". But Fox "News" and on down the rabbit hole, NewsMax, OANN and the like, they tend to veer away from reality where politics or "culture wars" are concerned. The fact that you can not see this means that you have bought into what they are selling.
As for, "Therefore I will do some research and when I have something, I will start a new topic. Look for it in March.", I will try, schedule permitting, but I can not make any guarantees, earlier may, or may not be better. I can not foresee the future, my schedule clears and fills on it's own schedule, not mine, but I will make an honest attempt of course.
I wish you well as well.
