With reference to this thread topic Cambridge Analytica are not "Media".

I'm sure that the left do in fact do better than the right - when the arguments and facts are rationally analysed. That's fairly obvious because on average, the more intelligent and better educated people are, the more liberal they tend to lean.

You completely missed my point, but somehow made it anyway.

Please elucidate.

There is a psuedo-intellectual element of the right that tries to bulldoze its way through discussions by dumping avalanches of statistics, quotes, citations, references and 'facts' of every description to try to overwhelm and distract any opposition. Thoughtful, considered analysis is not entirely absent, but it tends to get obfuscated by the mudslides of ideological flak.

Same with the left.

Except as far as the right goes - the regime in the US that CA assisted - they're demonstrably much bigger liars by an overwhelming margin.
