Wikipedia Founder Says Site is Ridiculously Left-Wing

DM-

  • Larry Sanger, 52, called alleged bias on the site he co-founded ‘disheartening’ in an interview for a Fox News analysis
  • He said: ‘The days of Wikipedia’s robust commitment to neutrality are long gone’
  • Sanger said he is now working on a new ‘Encyclosphere’ project but said he has hope Wikipedia could be ‘fixed’
  • His own Wikipedia page documents a long history of criticism against the site he co-founded 

Wikipedia pages related to socialism and communism show how the website has ‘become merely left-wing advocacy essays,’ according to Fox News.

‘The two main pages for “Socialism” and “Communism” span a massive 28,000 words, and yet they contain no discussion of the genocides committed by socialist and communist regimes, in which tens of millions of people were murdered and starved,’ the Fox News analysis claims.
