@knittingknots2 FWIW, because of important psychological differences between left-wingrs and right-wingers, full parity is not achievable in the first place. Left-wing people just aren't as suspectible to constant scapegoating as authoritarian followers are. I'm oversimplifying, but left-wingers like to treat the world as a PvE game, and right-wingers as a PvP game. Making left-wing news sources too heavily PvP, as comes naturally to right-wingers, would turn off many left-wing readers.
But some coherence between distinct news channels and ready response to loud fascist talking points would be nice, and should be doable.

@riley That is a good and useful analogy...PvE vs PvP...
