Another right wing propaganda site. Funny how right wing hacks love to scream “fake news” in peoples faces, yet showcase clips like this?
RIGHT BIAS
These media sources are moderate to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Right Bias sources.
Overall, we rate Young America’s Foundation Right Biased based on story selection that favors the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to a few failed fact checks.
Detailed Report
Bias Rating: RIGHT
Factual Reporting: MIXED
Country: USA
Press Freedom Rank: MOSTLY FREE
Media Type: Organization/Foundation
Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic
MBFC Credibility Rating: MEDIUM CREDIBILITY
History
Young America’s Foundation (YAF) is a conservative youth organization founded in 1969, whose mission is to ensure that “increasing numbers of young Americans understand and are inspired by the ideas of individual freedom, a strong national defense, free enterprise, and traditional values.”
Read our profile on United States media and government.
Funded by / Ownership
Young America’s Foundation is funded through donations with full disclosure on the website. Some notable donors are Pat Sajak, the Koch Brothers, and Amway.
Analysis / Bias
In review, Young America’s Foundation publishes articles that almost always favor the right. There is the moderate use of loaded language such as this: Cornell Leftists Predictably Lose Touch With Reality Ahead of YAF Lecture by VP Dick Cheney. YAF usually sources their information from credible sources. However, we found instances of them publishing false information to advance an anti-abortion position. See failed fact checks.
Failed Fact Checks
A doctor at the Mayo Clinic is misdiagnosing pregnancies of Trump supporters, so they have abortions. – Pants on Fire
Abortion is never medically necessary – Inaccurate
Overall, we rate Young America’s Foundation Right Biased based on story selection that favors the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to a few failed fact checks. (D. Van Zandt 5/20/2018) Updated (06/16/2022)

AOC masterminded that shit!!

Just YouTube street interviews asking basic geography and history. The average US person fails so hard, doesn’t need to be from Right wing or Left wing

Um, the question mostly was:
Who attacked us on 9/11
Unedited wait for an answer:
I don't know. Repeated.
Now that's pretty straight forward.
Granted, they could have asked 1,000 kids, and 980 nailed the answer & the "biased" outlet only aired the 20. But there is no indication of this. None.
However have you ever been to George Mason U?
I have - and it's a DC area blue as you can be liberal bastion of the left.
I have no doubt most kids have no clue of our history.
You might say this is a texbook example of confirmation bias..... perhaps.
But why get upset?
The traditional media is so far to the left that the echo chamber it creates around itself is astounding, so when someone you disagree with does the same thing, you cry foul?
Kinda hypocritical I think.

Actually my understanding is that George Bush was flying each one of these planes. The Asgard beamed him out right before the first plane hit and into the second plane and then out of the second plane and into the plane that was flying towards the Pentagon and then out of that plane into the last plane and then out of that plane right before it crashed and back to Florida where it was reading a book. This is what I learned from morning Joe and that's where I get all my information. God bless America

Ask the average person my age about the Vietnam war…. I’m sorry…. The conflict in Vietnam and you’ll get a lot of the same umm’s and bad answers. And that’s with my dad having served in the conflict hearing all his stories. The next country the US invades will create a future generation completely oblivious as to its beginnings.

Talk to any Japanese person born ib Japan under the age of 50. Japanese are not taught about the brutalities that Japan was responsible for before and during WW2. Japanes students are taught that Japan bombed Pearl Harbor to defend themselves then got nuked. Japanese students are not taught about how for years Japan pillaged, plundered and raped their way through Asian countries. Now Japan is being to build an offensive military to defend themselves against China. It was Japan who took Chinese woman as sex slaves for the Japanese military.

Most countries like Japan give a more watered-down version of their history. Attacks on your nation by outside groups and not even knowing is simply poor education

Organization with an obvious stated agenda asks multiple people on the street a question. They edit it to only responses that fit their narrative and low IQ viewers who agree with their agenda nod in agreement.
Cool.

Sheesh .. I want to thank you I u guys for pointing out Bias. I never would have thought it existed especially after reading all or your posts on here for years.
Funny thing ... I can talk to my average co-worker about any particular news topic of today or in the past and they have absolutely no idea of them ... so yeah your right the producers of that video have an agenda... and almost all of you do as well.

Didn't watch cause Leno on the street interviews already proved that your average American is dumb as fuck, on both left and right.
Ask 'em who's buried in Grant's Tomb and they haven't a clue.
But, I don't see any problem with the thinking behind this part...
“increasing numbers of young Americans understand and are inspired by the ideas of individual freedom, a strong national defense & free enterprise.
Beats the shit out of being a socialist, Marxist or any of that bullshit.
I dropped the "traditional values" part cause it gives me hives.
Wtf does that even mean?

When it comes to history, the average U.S. citizen is ignorant.

|
|
^ when it comes to history of communism the average hx communist never seems to want to speak of it. Only what's wrong with the government we have not the government they want.
|
|
|
^ lol
The average hx Prog is totally ignorant of the fact that Critical Race Theory and all that bullshit is simply derivative Marxism. Just replace "class with "race" and voila.
They haven't a clue as to the extent they're being led around by the nose into "wokism"
I'd almost be inclined to let it happen cause these idiots would be some of the first ones to be shot and dropped in a hole a la Cuba or Venezuela.
But, it's not worth even that small amount of fun and joy.

Pffttt. Bush Sr and the CIA. While the NYT's lied about WMD.
And people wonder why others countries hate America so much.

@witler5
Did anyone else notice that @witler5 used “USians” in reference to Americans?
The accepted English demonym for inhabitants of the United States of America is American.
Is it not ironic that an idiot starts a blog about people being ignorant? And you’re trying to have political discussions with people like this in these blogs?
|
|
|
mildlyamusing1, you are one whiney sumbitch. 
|
|
|
Projecting again, I see.
A handful of conservatives (including you, @Angler1) whine about literally everything, yet you offer nothing to back up your arguments. It's fucking embarrassing.
Bitch, bitch, bitch, and when pressed about backing up your arguments, you bitch about being challenged.
You're the entitled Karens of this site. Pathetic.
|
|
|
mildlyamusing, just keep whining.
|
|
|
It’s slang @mildlyamusing1. Or are you too stupid to realize I obviously wouldn’t write that in any formal setting? Because it seems like everyone else realized it’s just part of internet phrases
|
|
|
The one thing you Karens always do is provide lame excuses and deflections for your stupidity.
No one should take any of your clowns seriously.
|
|
|
mildlyamusing1, funny thing is, no one takes you seriously...
|
|
|
Nice deflection for your utter stupidity on failing to identify the most obvious slang. If you were smart enough, you would've realized I've used the word "American" several times in the past. But a partisan hack like you (similar to many Left and Right wing types) suffers from extreme brain rot and probably wouldn't have commented if I posted Jimmy Kimmel doing these same types of videos.
|
|
|
Why do you even bother arguing with these idiots. All they'll do is post from the liberal playbook that you're deflecting, that you're making excuses, they will never answer the question. Whatever they accuse you of doing they do in spades. This is straight out of the liberal handbook.
