Miley Cyrus Controversy

The article states that Cyrus' apology was in response to the controversy, but as I recall, Cyrus beat everyone to the punch and made the apology before anyone noticed anything objectionable. Her apology sparked the controversy, not the other way around. Could someone confirm the timeline of events? 12:27, 3 June 2008

Vanity Fair is a liberal magazine.

Vanity Fair is a left-leaning magazine.

This source is the one media-bias chart that is not marked as "generally unreliable" in Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources. DocZach (talk) 02:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

None of the media bias charts/sites are considered to lend sufficient WP:WEIGHT to add such a label. In the articles about sources that have a label like that, it's because there's a significant amount of high-quality coverage of that source which describes it as such. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 02:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Left-wing media is going to characterize media networks they disagree with, or that are even independent/center, as right-wing. And vice versa. It's like using Joe Biden as a source for information about Donald Trump, or Donald Trump as a source for information about Joe Biden. It's no secret that the majority of sources "allowed" on Wikipedia are left-leaning. Numerous studies have shown that the overwhelming majority of Wikipedia editors and sources used are left-wing, and it ruins Wikipedia's credibility as being a fair and unbiased encyclopedia.

Wrong place for that rant. Binksternet (talk) 04:06, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
