I don’t know if I should change the title to ‘does unbiased media exist?’

I just found out a Washington Post cartoonist quit after a Bezos satire she draw was rejected.

I was until today a reader of said newspaper, but after this kind of censorship I don’t know if I should keep reading it.

Note that I’m not looking for media sources that fabricate outrage either for the left or for the right or news sources whose business model is to editorialize titles to work people up. I’m just looking for unbiased media sources.

Maybe this was a stupid question: everyone is biased, or am I wrong?

    I like the way the Behind the Bastards podcaster explains it. Each journalistic outlet had strengths to certain things and part of learning to consume journalism is knowing what each sources’ strengths or weaknesses are. Or learning to follow specific journalists across platforms.

    And some just play to the echo chambering of political parties saying exactly what their reader base wants to hear. It’s good to learn what those are as well.
