We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

The only good news source to such folks is that which parrots their ideology.
Anything else is "far right" or "biased".
More importantly, whatever right-leaning bias Fox used to have was clearly dropped during the 2020 election.
For our friend who didn't even bother to read the article and finding the link to the study before being dismissive:
Link to the study
No, thats not the case. To paraphrase, it's because fox News has been peddling conspiracy theories, pseudoscience, propaganda, has used poor sources, and has failed numerous fact checks:

If you want a good source, go to AP news, Reuters, the hill, BBC, etc. Fox News is a trash source.
Here's the thing. You actually bothered to say something about fox news, claimed that they are a poor source, and backed that up with a citation. Cosmic did not. It's still just sealioning, and I distrust that citation because they rate CNN as mostly factual, but in any case, you actually put in some work. (And for the record, I understand that you guys distrust fox news. I would point you to the study they cited, and in turn the publicly available census data instead.)
CNN is atrocious for bias, but at least in comparison to say fox news, they're much more factual. Far, far from perfect, but significantly better.
And that's fine. But that's not what a link to fox news is.
Reading is tough. People on the left like to be told what to think. It is one of the strangest things to me.
I find it interesting so many people are moving from areas they destroyed with bad politics to areas where their politics are less tolerated.
It is why I didn't move to Portland. I knew my politics were different and I didn't want to fund their disaster. I moved to a more Red town and live in the nicer red part of that city.
The issue many blue states have is their tax base is moving away. Citadel Financial listed taxes and crime as why they moved their HQ out of Chicago.
That is why it is like a locust, once they've destroyed the blue states, they will try to move to the red states to destroy those.
