      The idea that Maddow, Lemon and O'Donnell are opinion shows but Joe Scarborough is not an opinion show is a revealing example of ideological bias. Centrism is an opinion, not self-evidently true. But the Times wants to treat centrism as being the same as being objective.https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1134473940909400064 …

      1. This is wild. The NY Times prevented one of its reporters from appearing on @maddow because it's categorized as an opinion show. They're also stopping their reporters from going on @donlemon and @Lawrence. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/05/the-times-gives-maddow-the-cold-shoulder#~o …

      Centrism is a view that both sides of the political spectrum should work together to share ideas and compromise. That’s different than an opinion or ideology. cc: @JoeNBC

          Also, that’s bipartisanism, or something. Centrism is just the political views in the center.
