Wikipedia Wiki-Spotlight: Bias!

Wikipedia is probably the most biased website on the internet. In fact, your libertarian hackjob asshats over at Conservapedia have compiled an ever-growing list of examples of Wikipedia's unencyclopedic entries.

Now the NYTimes is jumping on. Apparently corporations are spending time selectively editing Wikipedia entries for their own benefit. If this doesn't convince you that Conservapedia's the new it girl in the wiki circles, I don't know what will...

Conservapedia is a wiki-based web encyclopedia project with the stated purpose of creating an encyclopedia written from a socially and economically conservative viewpoint supportive of Conservative Christianity and Young Earth creationism. Andrew Schlafly, the site's creator and son of noted conservative Phyllis Schlafly, stated he founded the project because he felt Wikipedia had a liberal, anti-Christian, and anti-American bias.

It's the only unbiased news source left, because not even corporations care enough to edit the bullshit they spew.
