How come my edit was reverted?
[edit]This comment, along with this invective and this final straw show OP had no intent on collegial debate, and they've been blocked. Non-admin closure. Nate • (chatter) 22:12, 27 August 2021 (UTC) |

I am deeply disappointed in how Wikibias (described Tucker Carlson just yesterday) undid my edit. I tried to establish a fair point of view for both dems and reps. Let's take a look at CNN controversies, Wikipedia somehow reverts my edit that seeks to appeal to both liberals and conservatives. However, it was removed here. How come Wikipedia considered CNN, MSNBC, CBS, PBS, etc. as reliable news but not Fox News (WP:FOXNEWS)? Now take a look at Fox News controversies where THIS is found upon entry: "Fox News has been described by academics, media figures, political figures, and watchdog groups as being biased in favor of the Republican Party in its news coverage,[1][2][3][4] as perpetuating conservative bias,[5] and as misleading their audience in relation to science, notably climate change.[6][7][8][9]". How come my edit was taken down, but the above statement wasn't? WP is "neutral"? Tucker Carlson is correct, WP lost it's credibility as a reliable source a long time ago, even Larry Sanger says the same. RepublicanJones1952 (talk) 04:38, 24 July 2021 (UTC)RepublicanJones1952

Disputes involving CNN Brazil
[edit]I would like to quote here a remarkable case of controversy involving the journalist Alexandre Garcia (journalist). During his participation in the panel "Liberdade de Opinião", where he defended ineffective medicines against COVID-19. Can I add it here or do I need to put it on another page?

[edit]Are there no liberal, I mean "reliable" sources that show CNN paid him an undisclosed amount for defamation? Is defaming someone not controversial? 2600:387:A:982:0:0:0:64 (talk) 07:23, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
- There are actually reliable sources that cover the settlement:[1][2][3][4] The article from Washington Post also mentions a previous settlement CNN made with Richard Jewell. I think a section on settlements would be fine; the sister article BBC controversies mentions similar issues.LM2000 (talk) 09:10, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

- Oppose - Concision, basically. I don't find "we did this elsewhere" arguments persuasive on their own. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 21:16, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose I think "criticism" is too broad and out of scope for these articles. CNN and FNC both receive incessant criticism from opposing sides of the political spectrum. That's not the purpose of these articles, which detail specific controversies throughout their history.LM2000 (talk) 07:49, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
