I've done with the media what I've done on all political forums , give the right wing commenters a read till I run into the first lie, then I dump them. I honestly would like to have a right wing source to balance my media intake. I've dumped left wing sources who offer the same nothing, but I've dumped all of my right wing sources. It is obvious to me that it is the policy of the right to lie all the time. Supporting the politicians that can't get support without lying. And at this point, a party that can't get support without lying. I'm serious, if anyone has a suggestion, let me know .
Anyone have a right wing media source that I can follow.

What newspapers do you read? Or do you need people on TV to tell you what you think?
The Economist, The Hill or Weekly Standard are the ones I read.

The Economist is not right wing.
It is a moderate conservative leaning publication, in my opinion.

Why not just read what you can and make your own decisions? You referenced lying before. Both sides "lie" and a lie is usually only a disagreement with the person's point of view.

It isn't just a "point of view" to say that Trump won the 2020 election. It's a lie, i.e. a conscious statement of untruth. Those who go along with it are either dupes or liars.

First I didn't say it was true in all cases. Second it is generally true that people can dismiss things they disagree with by calling it a lie. Lastly in that particular case it's irrelevant as it's over. The imbecile is p"resident".

It isn't "over". More than two years after the election, Trump still says he was swindled - although he can't produce a scrap of proof - and tens of millions say they believe him.
This has never happened before in US history. It goes way beyond a politician's "lies". We don't know what damage it may do in the long run. And its only apparent purpose is to serve Trump's ego.

You need to broaden your perspective. I read The Nation, Vox, and Slate for example. I think all three present pretty insane and idiotic points of view, but I take the articles seriously and parse them critically. For me, it makes trashing Leftist arguments and positions far, far more simple to do.
I don't care if their positions and articles are tripe or not. I want to know what the enemy is thinking, and how they do it.

If you've dumped all your right wing sources why would any right wing source someone recommends here be any different?
And while The Economist is a good read, of the two media sites that rank bias one has it as Center and the other as Lean Left. Not a go to source if you're trying to get American right-wing political perspective.

Great question.
The enemy? They are your fellow Americans with different opinions. That’s a really messed up view.You need to broaden your perspective. I read The Nation, Vox, and Slate for example.
