While I support the idea of cracking down on religious extremism… Should we be linking Breitbart articles? You know… Basically the alt right?
The fact that you got downvoted twice over this says a lot. Breitbart is not a credible source and never has been, and you don’t need to be partisan to know this.

It matters because, while any underlying facts may be true, the article can present the facts in an inaccurate way or a way that suggests an incorrect conclusion.
Breitbart is a fantastic example.
What trespass said, but also this: When we link the article, we expand the amount of people that it reaches to. Two things happen due to this:
- The brand name of Breitbart becomes known for a person, likely without critical thinking.
- Breitbart earns more money, as more clicks translate to more revenue through ads.
Hence, by linking their articles, we directly end up supporting them.
Im honestly not surprised they were let in in the first place. But its still a bone headed move.
