Expected

There's supporting LGBTQ+ issues and there's being wrong.

I don't particularly like this quiz. Several of the headlines questions have no neutral-sounding answer, and the "Have you seen this story" stuff is just throwing off results. Sure, I've heard of Republicans saying moronic shit about COVID, but that doesn't mean I believe it.

I felt this way about the spa answer, and then I got conservative bias re: LGBTQ. :/

I can't figure out the script permissions to get this thing to work.

What do you exclusively read the fuckin weather? wtf

First question is what news sources you watch. I don't watch any and it won't let me skip the question. Failure of a survey.

lol. i p much dont read (or at least consider) an article unless its from AJ, AP, NPR, and a couple others. i'm not really a news guy and i dont trust my instincts when it comes to news, so i go with what's generally considered level headed

I feel like those are very wrong. The headlines were largely garbage with almost all answers horribly biased(or just downright lies).

Yeah I don't watch or read the news. Most of my knowledge of current events comes from duckbear and random comedy podcasts.

Bias Score - 43% LeftYou engage with a lot of sources, from a variety of perspectives.

Can't take the quiz, as I don't follow the news directly in any way.

yeah I'm stumped on the first question I don't even know what half of these are

not a shocker...https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/6/6/AALBVTAAC2gu.jpg

I didn't see duckbear in the sources selection

As expected.

50% Center

85% Factual news sources.

-47% Left. 100% Factual.

I think the last three sections sucked though.

Centrist as fuck

like most of these quizzes, stupid and bullshit

what exactly are they meaning by putting "censorship" on a 'liberal-conservative' scale? either way it's completely bunk

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/8/9/AAY0fDAAC2hF.jpg

as for this, when it asked which stories I remembered, I think it's because I saw them posted on CE, lol, so it might look off in some places

were you honest about sources? with all the newsmax, oan, breitbart, national _____, daily _____ shitsources you posts, you should be less mixed and more fake news

it's about the presentation of the headline, isn't it? it looks weird as a resullt but I can totally understandd when reading the question, which one was which

Oh, its news stations? Well thats not fun.

You engage with a lot of sources, from a variety of perspectives.

You engage with both U.S. and International news sources.

Most of your sources are reliable in their reporting, but some may sensationalize.

topic bias results were skewed imo; not enough inputs informing the calculations

It was a pretty clever survey

I feel like results don't reflect my actual beliefs because I think reporting should be neutral.

WTF at a supposed conservative bias on Covid

The funny part is people won't understand the irony in using a dumb test like this for confirmation bias >_>

Very deep, usually racially motivated

@ #35, I read factual sources with some opinion pieces mixed in, and that is reflected in my test results which were a perfect split right down the middle.
