    Please tell me where on their bias spectrum a centrist biased source would go. I’m not conflating anything, the site is.

      I just explained how that’s not what this spectrum illustrates. your lack of comprehension is not my responsibility.

        What does the spectrum illustrate if not bias? Because it sure looks like it’s a scale of bias: Extreme Left Bias, Left Bias, Left-Center Bias, Least Bias, Right-Center Bias, Extreme Right Bias. And it sure seems to correspond with the part of the article right below it that explicitly says “Right-Center Bias

        And again, where would a centrist biased source go on that spectrum?

        Also: ad hominem if you want to just link logical fallacies.

        And it is your responsibility. You are trying to disprove what I said but have offered no proof otherwise.

          I already explained how that’s not what this spectrum illustrates. your lack of comprehension is not my responsibility.

            What, political bias vs political alignment? Again, where would a heavily biased, centrist aligned source go on their graph? You haven’t answered that.

                    lmao you went back and edited your comment to remove the part I replied to (political bias vs political alignment).

                    I see nothing left in your comment that explains how that’s not what the spectrum illustrates. Here’s what you haven’t removed so far:

                    all that you’ve proven is that it is, in fact, you who cannot distinguish centrism from being unbiased because you conflate the center of a bias spectrum with political centrism in a context where the two are only political bias is being discussed and you’e trying to inject political alignment as a Straw man

                    in a context where the two are only political bias is being discussed

                    This part is malformed, I’m not even entirely sure what it’s supposed to say. I’ll assume this:

                    in a context where the two (left and right) are the only political biases being discussed

                    So you’re saying that the site just doesn’t consider centrist bias at all but only looks at left and right? Why is that? Centrist bias a form of bias too, isn’t it? Why don’t they consider centrist bias?
