They like to portray themselves as independent non-ideological truthseekers, and in the past many were.

But in recent years they've become ideologically alt-left/alt-right ... basically losers who resent the success of women, PoC, etc.

Thus there is no way to trust the authenticity of anything they put out, and no reason for any credible media outlet to cover it.
