9. Why The Hill's media bias rating is wrong

Those media bias ratings are BS. With capital B and S
The Hill’s real media bias rating is:
Subtle Rightwing Propaganda (with some good reporters).

See above article which contains links on: Solomon/Circa/Uranium One, Finkelstein, Josh Marshall on Solomon, Republican-amplifying headlines, rightwing crazies in op-eds falsely balanced by center-left pundits.

Oh, and notice the Hill was the first in the WHCA to criticize Michelle Wolf when she roasted Trump.

I watch national media closely. The Hill is circumspect, but they definitely reflect the rightwing bias of their owner. No one at DU should quote The Hill.
