    I think the opposite is true. If it’s funded by someone who, the person has negative or positive associations that can influence how the person perceives what they read. The same network can have good, bad, well researched, poorly researched or even paid advertisements in the article. Judging individual content on its own, is the only way to have the most objective read. We are already influenced by our own bias based on our own life experiences, environment and other factors.

      … honestly that makes no sense. Being aware of funding sources allows you to be weary of bias and the potential point of view driving a story. This goes for any source. This is not a dig at you, but generally good practice.

      One’s own personal biases is another matter altogether.
