> In what sense are CBS, CNN, and the Washington Post hard left?

>> The issue here is that everything here is considered the hard left of the media by Fox viewers.

Maybe the edit here makes the statement clearer because before it was implicit.

I'm still not seeing the edit, but honestly Fox News viewers seeing CBS as substantively representing the left in any capacity is a large part of the problem here. Fortunately not everyone who matters believes only Fox News and nothing else.

The edit was "by Fox News viewers" which was previously implicit. To them these are hard left, but to moderates and the left they aren't. It is a matter of perspective.

This is something I agree with and is actually the crux of my post.
