One of the questions posed to my during my interview on the local access show "Progressive Soup" had to do with the reliability of blogs.
Specifically, I was asked how do question the reliability of blog writers, to which my response was that you should always question the source of the material from ALL media outlets. For instance, although this is a site that takes a look at Danbury politics from a progressive point of view, I always try my best when it comes to providing as much information as possible so the reader can form their own opinion.
Taking that into consideration, I used the content that comes from FAUXNews, a extreme right-winged news network, as an example of a media outlet that thrives on providing misleading information and DISTORTS reality in order to justify their slanted opinion.
From Media Matters, here's a clip from FAUXNews that backs up my statement.
