Some facts about the right-wing media to start us off:
- Confirmation Bias: Many right-wing media outlets are accused of catering to their audience’s pre-existing beliefs, reinforcing confirmation bias. They may selectively present information that aligns with conservative viewpoints while ignoring or downplaying contrary evidence.
- Misinformation and Conspiracy Theories: Some right-wing media have been criticised for promoting misinformation and conspiracy theories. Examples include false claims about election fraud, COVID-19 and climate change denial.
- Polarisation: Critics argue that right-wing media contribute to political polarisation by framing issues in a way that demonises opposing viewpoints and fosters a “us vs. them” mentality.
- Lack of Diversity: Some right-wing media outlets are criticised for a lack of diversity in their contributors and perspectives, which can result in a narrow range of viewpoints being presented.
- Sensationalism: Right-wing media outlets often use sensationalism to attract viewers and readers, prioritising entertainment value over factual reporting.
- Bias in Story Selection: Critics contend that right-wing media may selectively cover stories that serve their political agenda while ignoring or downplaying other important news.
- Influence on Political Discourse: Some argue that right-wing media have significant influence on the conservative base and thus potentially pushing the party further to the right.
- Hostility Toward Mainstream Media: Many right-wing media outlets foster distrust of mainstream or “liberal” media, which can make it difficult for consumers to discern credible sources from biased or unreliable ones.
- Lack of Accountability: Critics argue that some right-wing media personalities and outlets may not face sufficient accountability for spreading false or misleading information.
Thus, when it comes to discussing leveling up, the only people they care about are the wealthiest. The rest can go swing.
