> Fox News is the same level of journalism as guardian, verge and nytimes

Really?

> I guess people are choosing to be in a bubble of the trash they like. Maybe because they don't know the billionaires that own the other media

And the NYT is publicly traded (The CEO has an estimated networth of only 10mil)

Verge doesn't really do journalism that makes me worried about who owns it.

> Other surprising trash to me is people want to see: rtings.com and goodreads.com.

rtings does colour profiles of plenty of slightly less popular monitors that no one else does. It's been an invaluable resource for me.

This comment is genuinely nonsensical. I'd think that it's obvious that rich owners tend to push a conservative economic spin to preserve their wealth.

> I really tried hard with Goodreads and never found good book recommendations there.

Most people end up on goodreads from search to see the reviews people left for the book....
