Well, yes and no. There are people who keep it running but they are not the editors. When there is a difference of opinion, they vote. It is very transparent. The reason they have gone hard left is because there are more people voting that way, not because of some mysterious "top" who decided it.

They don't have to be mysterious to be the "top". There were also more people voting a certain way in the UN. What does that tell you?

Did you read the articles and threads about it? Someone is deciding who gets to be considered a valid voice and view. Among other problems.

I'm always amazed that, no matter how much we criticize outlets like NYT, NPR, and CNN for being biased against the right, there are always those who attack them from the left!

Not sure which thread to put this, but all DIE employees are the same garbage. The most racist pieces of scum to walk this earth masquerading as the world's biggest unifiers and concerned for all:

President Biden on Monday commuted the sentences of 37 of 40 men on federal death row — a list that includes at least five child killers and several mass murders — in a stunning act of clemency just two days before Christmas.

Biden, 82, gave the reprieve to the nation’s most violent murderers — nine of whom were found too dangerous to live after butchering fellow inmates — as part of his effort at “ensuring a fair and effective justice system,” the White House said.

The official explanation is that he did not commute those convicted of terrorism or hate-based mass murder.

This was really what my question was on. Who cares if it was terror or murder? Hate or not?
