    If you don’t want people to be distracted by shitty right wing sources, the easiest solution would be using better sources…

            Left or right doesn’t really enter into it from a moderating standpoint, but yeah, tabloid articles tend to lean into sensationalism over facts.

            Not as bad as AMERICAN tabloids which would be flat out removed:

            But man, things like the Sun and the Daily Mirror do walk a thin line.

              I’m following the list you gave, so I’m trying my best here. It’s the exact same rating as the Guardian.

              The only difference is left/right.

                Oh, I know, which is why I didn’t remove it.

                I’m just saying that the British tabloid press definitely has a reputation, and because of that, you will get complaints.

                They aren’t as bad as the US tabloids, but still. If you find a good story on a tabloid site, you might want to consider finding it through a different source.

                I have the same problem here in Oregon. KPTV is and has been an excellent news source, but they’re also a Fox affiliate, so I’m always like “Yeah, better see if I can find that from somewhere else…” Same problem with Sinclair stations.
