It is not to be found in the Epoch Times which is a 19 year old right wing paper, funded by Falun Gong and there is no bigger media supporter of Floridaman. You will not find things that question Floridaman there.

I don't know if any of this is covered in Epoch Times. I would suspect that if it were it would not have the obvious left stance that the NYT article has. And there will be important factual and well sourced articles that will not be found in NYT. The left leaning MSM has not reported on many of the things that right leaning outlets have and which turned out to be the truth. This was evident throughout the Mueller investigation when the lefties constantly and breathlessly reported on the certainty of Trump/Russia collusion, and the righties pointed out that there was no real evidence of it. And this one-sided reporting from the left is still going on. Outlets like Epoch Times give another factual side. I note that you did not dispute anything by Epoch Times videos that I posted.

It is funded by a subscription, advertising. and donation model. It prints in 21 languages in 35 countries covering the usual topics, world and national news, op eds, sports, entertainment, business, arts and culture, travel and health. Some of the stuff in its "beyond science" section are questionable. But I don't care about that kind of stuff.

I don't know if there is a bigger media supporter of Trump, nor would that in itself influence my perception of what it says. There would probably be some negative opinions about Trump, especially in regard to his trade negotiations with China.

Per Media Bias//Fact Check, for straight news (which is the only thing that would interest me) it is well sourced and reasonably low biased. It also states that it has not failed any fact checks.

BTW, the ET newspaper is not a source for me. I don't subscribe to it. My interest lies in the youtube videos it produces. The American Thought Leaders series is really good. And it gives factual information that won't be found in the NYT.


You claim that the NYT has a long and checkered history. It's history is 150 years longer than the Epoch Times and produces far more copy. It leans left.
Floridaman has always wanted NYT coverage. Why else did John Barron, David Dennison and John Miller leak to them about Floridaman. [/QUOTE]

Yes it has a checkered 150 year history. Including episodes of pro Russian, pro communist reporting. And saying that it "leans" left is putting it mildly.
