"The New York Post (sometimes abbreviated as NY Post) is a daily tabloid newspaper in New York City. The Post also operates NYPost.com, the celebrity gossip site PageSix.com and the entertainment site Decider.com.
It was established in 1801 by Federalist and Founding Father Alexander Hamilton and became a respected broadsheet in the 19th century under the name New York Evening Post. In 1976, Rupert Murdoch bought the Post for US$30.5 million. Since 1993, the Post has been owned by News Corporation and its successor, News Corp, which had owned it previously from 1976 to 1988. Its distribution ranked 4th in the US in 2019"
It used to be a newspaper and respected one - since Murdoch bought it not so much.

I will say the same about the NYT. It has become a Democrat dream of a tabloid.
One is true, one is not. I stand by my statement and disagree with yours. NOWHERE is the Post listed as a tabloid.
Maybe if you read something other than liberal rags you'd have an unbiased opinion all your own. I deal with Fox because I see almost as many anti Trump articles as pro Trump. I also don't discount press based on my politics. The NYT has lost all my respect because they do nothing but publish what the DNC wants. They don't even pretend to be "fair and balanced" anymore. If that's what you read you should know that.

PO3 Patricia Miner - Notice how that's in quotes? It's because I copied and pasted it. It actually IS listed as a tabloid.
I don't read "liberal rags." LOL. I read things that do their best to not have ANY political leanings. Maybe if you read something other than FoxNews...there are very, very few on Fox that don't kiss Trump's ass and what happens when they don't kiss it? He calls them fake news too.
He even admitted during his 60 minutes interview that he calls the media "fake" and attacks them so that he can discredit them to his followers. Well that's pretty obvious.
Where did I say I read the NYT on a regular basis? You do realize that people who don't like Trump aren't all Democrats right? I know a LOT of Republicans who have left the party because of Trump. Look at the ones turning on him in case he loses the election? Republicans don't even like him in the Senate they just suck his dick because he's the President.
Not only is NY Post labeled a tabloid on Wikipedia but also I found more sites that describe it as such:
"The New York Post is a daily newspaper in New York City, published in tabloid format. Its distribution ranked 4th in the US in 2018."
Or: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/new-york-post/
"Founded in 1801 by Alexander Hamilton (One of the Founding Fathers of the United States), the New York Post (NY Post) is a daily tabloid newspaper from New York City. "
https://www.adfontesmedia.com/new-york-post-bias-and-reliability/
I mean that's like three other sites that call it a tabloid and that since Murdoch bought it, hasn't been a legit paper.
You know I never made any assumptions about you so for you to go on and attack me is pretty immature and ridiculous but knowing you enjoy Fox News...fine.

New York Post - Media Bias/Fact Check
RIGHT-CENTER BIAS These media sources are slightly to moderately conservativein bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes)to favor conservativecauses. These sources are generally trustworthy for information, but may require further investigation. See all Right-Center sources. Overall we rate the New York Post on the far end...

The difference being that those 5 people you mentioned don't post propaganda and misinformation meant to sway the American electorate.

SGT Edward Wilcox Yes, I have not said they are not, there is a movement to repeal the protections afforded to public utilities via the telecommunications decency act or whatever, because they are not public utilities, yet use that to cover themselves from lawsuits and other activities.i forget the specific number or name, but its going to congress because of twatter and facebrick being dorks. The service they provide, who else are major players in social media that provide the same stuff that twatter and facebrick does? Take an interest in what your government does my friend, it will enlighten you. The past congress critters didnt want to because they were taking kick backs. People in office for decades have no interest to fix or change stuff for you and I. Let that sink in man. Why would nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, or anyone else change stuff this far in their career? They wont because it doesnt benefit them and itll harm them.

SGT Gregory Cole - Same could be said for the Republicons in office.
I doubt that members of Congress are taking "kick-backs" from Facebook and Twitter, for any reason. They do not use the protections afforded to public utilities, because they are not public utilities. They are not regulated and controlled by the government because they are not public utilities. Facebook and Twitter may be the two biggest, but there are many more social media sites out there, RallyPoint being just one of them.
Don't like what that they keep your god figure, and his minions, from lying? Then stop using them. Simple as that.

SGT Edward Wilcox If i had an eye roll or head bang thing I would use it. So everything that is said about trump is gospel and anything that goes against anyone who is not trump is evil and must be silenced, on those platforms according to you? Yes they are private business, but how they pick and choose what can and cannot be up, at what point would it become discrimination? Why does the government have mark zuckerburg and whatever the twitters guy name is come in and testify before congress if they are not significant? Do they make mom and pop running the bodega come in and testify when someone alleges mistreatment? Heck if the government can tell a bakery they have to serve people that they do not want to because of their own personal beliefs, what makes you think twitter and facebook are magically untouchable? No one needed a telephone when it came out, yet it became a utility. Heck if comcast was doing what facebook and twitter did, they would be in trouble, wouldnt they? Refusing service because someone has a set of thoughts or beliefs different from theirs? Wake up and smell the manure man. Youre knee deep in it and dont even know.

SGT Gregory Cole - When does it become discrimination? When it can be shown that the posts are being deleted or banned according to race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, or a host of other protected classes. When it can be shown that the content is being removed because it violates the policies the poster agreed to, then it is not discrimination, it is poor decision making on the part of the poster. Do I think that there are left leaning posters who should have their content removed? Yes. There are liars on both sides. There are hateful people on both sides who post crap that should not be allowed. The only problem I see is that it is only the righties that are complaining. The biggest complainer being the one with the biggest soap box.
The solution is really simple. Keep your content within the policies that you agreed to, and it won't be deleted, and you won't be banned for repeated violations. Otherwise, find a different forum. I found a social media site that caters to the Left. I'm sure you can find one that caters to the Right.

Twitter and Facebook are 10000% bias. If it is derogatory towards liberals/Democrats it gets censored. But if it is against Conservatives/Republicans they allow it. Twitter banned someone for stating a fact "Only females get cervical cancer." https://thepostmillennial.com/twitter-bans-account-for-claim-that-only-women-get-cervical-cancer
Twitter bans account for claim that 'only women get cervical cancer'
Twitter user Hammer_of_Glass was suspended for tweeting "Only females get cervical cancer."
