#12 in trust of the major Australian news providers. In general, story selection and editorial positions mostly favor the right and are not always factual.

You’re not one to talk about any of this. You are completely one eyed and hopelessly biased. Give it a rest. You have zero credibility when it comes to anything to do with facts.

No. You continually try to make out as though there's this moral equivalency and explain it all away as simply saying everyone is supposedly equally biased. Therefore anyone can make any BS up and simply use that lame excuse when facts are presented?That's just the point, we all have our biases just as fact-checkers do.

Rubbish. There are real facts and real lies and you can't just equalise them all out with such a rubbish argument as that. Pull the other one!
