YouTube news channels will be biased by the very nature of the platform.

I watch CTV News on their website, but given that you're not Canadian I doubt that'll interest you. Find a reputable news station (hard in the USA, I understand) and stick to their website.

I don't know if I agree with that. Lots of websites upload their videos to youtube.

I've only ever really seen snippets before today, and they seemed ok. I just sat down through a few episodes/shorts and they are so biased it's ridiculous.

Like, I understand having biases, as that's natural, but they are just spewing hate (hate is probably too strong a word) and just taking pot shots at people. Super unprofessional.

Secular Talk is a much better version of TYT.

I wouldn't call it biased. I actually have no idea how I could walk away from any of his videos disagreeing. It's like I have no choice.

TYT rubs me the wrong way, because they don't seem so intelligent as much as they know what side they want to be on and they use typical news strategies to play on people's emotions. It's not even that I think they're on the wrong side.

Kyle, on the other hand, is just a pissed off New Yorker.

Almost all news these days is biased at least somewhat, Fox News kicks that shit up to a 12 or so on a scale of 10 but even the liberal based ones bias a bit.

That's the worst part about Fox News is they painted the landscape for how most news networks will operate from then on.

I gotta appreciate how you said less biased, because humans by nature can't completely avoid being biased. (Genuine sentiment btw.)

Meh if you report just the facts it's tough to be biased I felt old school network news was good at that.

Stuff like a woman was killed today in her home etc... Fox News was the first to take every news piece and frame it so the republicans would either get riled up by it or that it made the Republicans feel superior.

Sure when the opinion comes into news and the belief structure then that is when bias spreads.

Bias is understandable, but if you're not at least acknowledging the existence of other viewpoints then it's not informative.

At the same time, if a viewpoint is trash and you make no effort to criticize it in fear of appearing biased, that is equally problematic. I dont think shows should be against expressing their own opinions as long as it's not misrepresenting the other side.

I can't fathom why anybody would watch TYT. Even if I was a SJW, I'd find it crap.

While I don't necessarily agree with that sentiment, there's a pretty big gap between a slight bias and TYT.

I caught part of an interview where Cenk was talking to a gamer girl. He'd bring up points and statements along his agenda, ask questions that assume his previous statements were correct, get directly contradicted by the gamer girl, and then act like she had just agreed him... and then the cycle began again. Honestly, I felt bad for the girl.

Bias isn't limited to just how things are reported. It's also about things like deciding what to cover and how prominent the coverage is, or which experts/guests get quoted or called in. Chaos is correct that no one can avoid being biased. It's better for us to recognize that about ourselves than pretend that we can somehow rise above basic human nature.

Good luck finding anything without it being censored or demonetized, since Alphabet are actively trying to suppress conservative voices to ensure that Donald Trump doesn't get reelected.

This so hard. Plus which facts you choose to include -- and which you choose to omit -- help shape the narrative.

There are some pretty substantial differences between unintentional bias and the kind we see with both the media and alt-media.

I have not posted anything opinionated. I have included several sources from sites and sources that have different biases, to verify the claim.

I don't know if I've become more conservative or what, but they used to be much better. I used to watch them from time to time a number of years ago during the Obama administration. Now they're just a joke.

In the few things I've watched of hers outside of TYT, Ana Kasparian seems to have it together. But it seems like if she gets together with Cenk or those other weirdos, she turns into a turbo asshole.
