You don’t read good. Quotas are quite illegal. That’s the disingenuous argument of someone who doesn’t like having to answer why they thought the most qualified candidate was most qualified in had talked about.
Also, you responded this to a joke about not picking the guy throwing around random sovcit accusations? Man, you two deserve each other
Well, he’s really qualified because of his podcasting. Actually, now that I think about it, that’s a theme
I’ve been hiring in a male dominated field for a while, and realistically, in those scenarios, you’re actually being asked to make sure you interview women at all, and if you go with a man, you need to be able to explain why the man was more qualified than the women you interviewed.
Anyone who has said they were forced to hire a woman, in my experience, has been disingenuous, and upset at the layer of accountability
Can’t wait for the Jan. 6 committee committee committee that’ll eventually investigate this Jan. 6 committee committee
My memory was that we knew this at the time?
I was just stirring the pot, and I love this response
Who are you calling an amateur, buddy? I can argue you under the table!
I guess 2000 was long enough ago to forget
If the dems ever sweep the house and senate, I hope they pass legislation
I mean, it’s pulling from MBFC and ground news, which are not both owned by Dave Van Zandt, and he doesn’t work alone. Also, when compared to other fact checking organizations, MBFC performs well, from what I’ve read. Well enough that if you find their output uncomfortable, you should be second guessing yourself.
It’s not really a bot’s opinion though? It’s reporting on salon in general, and letting you know that the reporting has a bias, which means generally, it might promote parts of the story that show Vance in a bad light compared to other reporting, and the. The Ground News link shows that reporting on this topic across several sources tends to be pretty non biased and factual. That’s all good information to have, and saying otherwise means you want to let yourself be misled.
And everything other than joining the topic and the source is written by humans who are trying to keep people informed.
If you’re down voting a fact checker, you might want to do some self reflection on why you’re upset that Salon doesn’t have a perfect rating
That’s what the article is about: how that change has pushed politicians to be open about their flaws and having much more public lives, like celebrities. Meaning that voters vote for politicians who act like celebrities. The sentiment in other comments of “No. No we don’t.” ignores the reality of who has been winning elections for the last 30 years.
I’m gonna guess there’s a lot of down votes from people who just read the title…
The author points out the last 30 years of presidential candidates as their evidence, and paints a pretty nuanced picture of his politicians have dealt with changing voter trends. No one wants to vote for the candidate that doesn’t act like that can emphasize empathize (glide typing failed me) with them, even though that’s not really the president’s job.
That’s helpful information, they both look like they’ve got good pedigrees. I’m a bit surprised that none of the normal fact and bias checker sites have anything for Drop Site.
I don’t quite understand the down votes here: Israel is a topic with lots of strong opinions, and basic good media literacy is to do research on sources you don’t recognize. There’s been a lot of shoddy journalism to get clicks out there, and one should be critical of the information they ingest. The Ground News bot is a good thing.
I’m having trouble finding any kind of credibility grading for this source
If those ~25 Lemmy users could read they’d be very upset
I have been told the fix is to stop talking about race. Surely if we don’t talk about it, the grid will upgrade itself?
