This is where I get most of my daily news. I find it to be mostly unbiased even though some they are left leaning, like anything else you have to form your own opinion on most topics and just use them as a news source.
Really don't care for websites whose only option is to sign in or register with facebook. Something about that I don't trust. I think every country has its own rag newspaper but I think the Huffington Post is the leader in America, Too Brassy? Nah!
I love the news and information that one gets from this site. Great site indeed.
This review mainly applies to the UK site (huffpost.co.uk) but some/a lot of it might also apply to the US.
Huff post is quite left wing and liberal. They like immigrants and DIVERSITY, they dislike Brexit (they're pro europe). Huff P seems to hate white males, and will champion anything to do with anything else (feminazi's, LGBT, list goes on). Their diversity seems to be that anything *other* than white males is good, and is a victim.
They seem to censor any views which are contrary to their own agenda. (unlike the BBC who censor any views which are against the house rules. But then again, the BBC doesn't let you comment on everything. Then again, half the stories on Huff have '0 comments', which might make you wonder how many other comments they have censored)
Huff Post employs something which reddit calls 'shadow bans/censors'. That is, if you use a censored word (like 'muslim', or 'liberal' - seriously) your post will still appear to your own login but won't appear to anyone else. So unless you log out and view the page, you won't know you've been censored. Then you figure out which word has been censored, and either edit or delete/edit/repost it. Spread the word.
Huff Posts left-wing stance does get so mildly irritating sometimes, that even the Daily Mail's website can be a refreshing break.
Huffpost actively censors. Including the word 'censor'. And they have a list of usernames they censor, so if you post something they don't like, they'll be monitoring for your comments (it does actually say this in the T's & C's of the website).
Interesting stats https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/huffingtonpost.co.uk (alexa is less useful than it used to be)
To call this site liberal is an overstatement. One thing is to be liberal but still with your feet firmly on the ground. Observing the world and situations critically.
However, lying and misleading the public when it comes to political and religious issues without pointing out both sides of the "coin" so to speak is propaganda. Just as bad as any propaganda. They are biased and they are painting a rainbow pictures, especially when it comes to religions and islam in particular.
Islam has issues with bacon, gender equality, same sex marriage, abortion, atheism, science and I could go on and on here. Saying that somebody is islamophobic when pointing out all the religious bull$#*!, when criticising their religion and battling it with reason is hypocritical, and it is bigotry.
When they demand respect while not giving respect, when they scream and cry how they are prosecuted while at the same time they demand special rights and compensations in the name of their religion I would stipulate that there is no islamophobia.
The term was created in order to shut up critics of islam so their religious bigotry, hate and intolerance world not be challenged. Trumps plans for muslims sound remarkably similar to Nazi plans for all the Jews and other undesirables, which of course is WRONG. However, to be silent and play into their I am a victim bull$#*! is equally WRONG.
I will eat bacon wherever I want, whenever I want. If that is offensive to certain type of people, it is their problem. They don't like it, they can go back to Pakistan or Saudi Arabia, where they follow islamic laws, which are medieval and barbaric, but nonetheless, they have them.
They have the right to believe what they want. It is their basic human right and I will defend that right. However, the moment anyone starts telling me that "I cannot eat bacon" because it is against "their" religion, that I will have a problem with and I shall not respect any religion, which in its core is oppressive.
I am in no way an extremist of any sorts, except maybe I am extreme in my Atheism. ( That is why I wrote my first book on the subject recently, and through a story I am pointing out the bigotry and hypocrisy of our political systems and catholicism). - This is what extremists atheist do. We do not bomb abortion clinics and we do not kill people because they are gay, or want to leave muslim faith.
They are white washing everything and they are no better than FOX news.
Great for gossip and politics as long as you're leaning left.
A piece of $#*! racist website that does not deserve to exist.
How does Huffington Post get away with incessant, blatant left wing bias?
