    Ok, but the output of the aggregator can still be analyzed for bias, right? How often does “Business Insider* yahoo” aggregate right-wing bullshit vs left-wing bullshit vs actual apolitical truth? Knowing the source’s source doesn’t change the veracity of the article, only the contents of the article affect that.

      So you’re upset that this little bot is correctly configured to ignore a link aggregate site because the bot doesn’t yet have nested links implemented?

      I guess b better argument is, why have the bot post a comment at all. Or maybe it’s the Media Bias api that’s just giving back a negative and the bot doesn’t know it’s due to the source being a link aggregate.
