“You guys throw around “rest of the world” like it means something. Compared with the rest of the industrialized nations, the NYT indeed slants right.”
I’d like to second this. People who think the US media are left-leaning have probably never lived in or spent much time outside the US. American conservatives seem to rival North Koreans for their provincalism. By the standards of ALL the other major western democracies US political culture is way to the right. The UK Conservative party is to the LEFT of the US Democrats.
