About.Com Hit Pieces
Did you know that About.Com has a strong political bias? I never did (but then I've not used it too much). I do know that Wikipedia is an extremely inaccurate source for information about most topics, especially anything controvertial, as the left strongly and heavily moderates and edits that site; but now I've seen that About.Com appears to be the same.

One hit piece was a direct attack on Janice Rogers Brown, during her nomination to the supreme court. And recently the same author at the site did a hit piece on a blogger that he disagreed with.
Just keep that in mind when you're searching for information on that site -- there's either no editorial oversight, or there's a strong leftist editorial board -- either way they allow biased hit pieces on individuals.

I had no idea it had any content at all. I always thought it was just a nexus for ads. I hate the thing.

Well there are certainly a LOT more ads than there is content!

I had a feeling it was liberally biased but could not put my finger on it, so to speak.
