Apparently, given how many downvotes I have, you aren't alone. Given that I'm agreeing with a lot of people that are arguing with me, I'm pretty sure it was my messaging. I think part of that is that since we are so politicized and language requires us to fill in parts that because I tried to dampen it to those on the right that it came off as supporting them.

Pretty much my point was: this links to only stuff on the left and so it gives the right an easy target to point to to continue with their claim (which I believe is false) that the left media is trying to control the people.

Yeah, except those aren't left wing sites. The problem is not the lack of balance, and I think your words keep making it seem like it is. There aren't reliable conservative sources on these issues, and the sources that are linked are all moderate. At this point conservatives will pretty much call anything or anyone that disagrees with them leftist, so it doesn't really matter what sources you put there so long as they're reflecting anything close to the truth.

I believe most people would consider them left wing. But that doesn't matter because it is a matter of perspective.

The problem isn't that, the problem is I was saying that this is going to happen (which didn't take very long):
