"If you need a reporter to be 100% unbiased in their reporting to take a given topic seriously, you need to go back to elementary school. Facts and opinions are different things, both can be in a given statement, and you obviously never figured that out. Further, we don't care what 2n other scientists said, or what the reporter's "agenda" is. We care about what statements the scientists in the article said and whether or not those statements are factual when referring to the results and process of their research. Yes there may be interpretation in the article, and the scientists may even be the ones to give it, but when referring to the actual data and how that data was generated, that is when we care about whether or not the statements are factual. That's the scientific method, and when used properly it cuts through any bias."
Nobody expects "100% unbiased", it's just not going to happen. What I would like to see is fewer pejoratives in headlines that are clearly opinion instead of fact based. We see way too much of that from both the left and right. What I'd like to see is much less click-bait, but I know in this age of eyeball revenue, it's not likely to ever happen again.
NYC isn't alone in this. I visited London ~30 years ago, and our taxi driver refused to take us to Trafalgar (thankfully), but we were young and didn't know better. It was easy to be an ignorant tourist before the internet was commonly available.
I've had an iPhone 6s since they first arrived, and two sets of headphones, one bluetooth, one wired (Bose noise cancelling earbuds). I've used the Bose for noisy places like airplanes and I love them, but my bluetooth headset works great for places like the gym, and has 8 hr charge capacity. I'm very happy with the music playback quality on both. So, now that I picked up an iPhone XS, the only reason I'll miss the port is because of the Bose...gotta pick up a dongle cuz I won't replace the Bose until they break...they were expensive but worth it IMO.
I believe this is (in snowflake speak) a "microaggression". So, since it fits the agenda, they'll certainly include it. It's no longer allowed to be considered a joke since intentions no longer matter, only how it makes the recipient feel. Kinda like when an ugly guy approaches a gal, says something nice, and she says he's creepy, but a handsome man says the same thing and it's okay.
I personally didn't care so much about the online interaction, but being a bit older (60), I had a headstart playing on computers in high school as early as '73. Actually, they were teletypes connected via acoustic modems to the local community college, up until we built our own Altair in the electronics club.
People like you are the reason we have so many snowflakes. If someone can't call you a name w/o you shrugging it off, then you have a problem. It's not the worlds issue to make your little corner of the planet a safe space. If you didn't get called names as a kid, you lived a sheltered life. When people cross the line to physical abuse, I'm there for you. But having been a victim of both as a kid, the verbal never even came close to the physical.
The problem with this whole scenario is that the media can payoff whoever they please, and get away with publishing the names. Until someone is actually arrested and charged, they should not be allowed to so so...freedom of the press be damned. I want a free press too, but they need to be responsible just like we can't yell fire in a theater willynilly.
So, are you against NSA spying on our adversaries? We're all well aware that that's their job, and that virtually every country on the planet does so, or it wouldn't likely continue to be a country. So, if we've discovered how one of our adversaries is doing so, and try to put a stop to it, how is that an issue for you?

Hard to be "trumped" in a city controlled by the left.
Ah, see now you're just a clown.

...and just to point out a bit more idiocy here
Fucking cunt gets 70% while Stupid cunt gets 95%
Oh, and my favorite so far...
"go back to the kitchen" - 90%
"How stupid can you be?" 63% - Moderate
"Don't be such a bitch" 85% - Very High
and yet...
"Fuck you" gets 10%
"Calm down! I know the Irish are...."

Keep your internet out of the kitchen!

As a veteran and 7 year single dad, I'll answer for you. Taking care of a toddler is cake compared to war. Got it?
"I'm old enough to have been playing online games for almost 20 years."
Get off my lawn rookie. ;-P
Just because The Verge claimed it was doesn't make it so. In fact it makes it completely unlikely and false.
Isn't information on government contracts available, unless there's some kind of security classification?
Suggest you go learn about microwaves before fear mongering.
Do you know who did? Isn't it likely that someone was paid off for the name(s)?...even maybe some officers?

"Monarchy is the smallest government of all, a government of one and..."
Um, where in history have you seen a monarchy that was a government of one. Clue: you haven't.
With all of the Five Eye's chiefs saying they're a national security threat, I'm not concerned with China going to the WTO in the least.
Right, so you're now claiming that prior to the tariffs, we were on a level playing field? Not even close.
Apparently, some are convinced there is...
