WIKIPEDIA TAKEN OVER BY THE LEFT, SAYS CO-FOUNDER

-

Wikipedia has been taken over by left-leaning volunteers and only offers a one-sided version of informatio­n, according to the website's co-founder. Larry Sanger, an American philosophe­r who co-founded the online encycloped­ia in 2001, said it seemed to assume “that there is only one legitimate defensible version of the truth on any controvers­ial question.” Sanger, 53, cited page entries on Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, as an example. “The Biden article, if you look at it, has very little by way of the concerns that Republican­s have had about him,” he told the website Unheard. “So if you want to have anything remotely resembling the Republican point of view about Biden, you're not going to get it from the article.”
