Following reports of former New York Times editor and the Free Press founder Bari Weiss being appointed editor-in-chief of CBS News, editors on Wikipedia began negatively slanting her page and those of CBS and the Free Press. This includes attempting to label Weiss as right-wing and slanted edits about a CBS settlement with President Donald Trump. Some suggested blacklisting CBS as a source in the future. News about Weiss being appointed to leadership at CBS News first emerged on October 2 with the official announcement on October 6. The newly-merged parent company Paramount Skydance further announced its purchase of her Free Press outlet.

Is there some alternative for Wikipedia? If so, I will certainly use it.

Even colleges won't accept Wiki references in papers because of the bias. I mean, how far gone are you when you're too left-leaning for colleges in the US?

#3, the colleges aren't concerned with Wikipedia being too left-leaning, they are concerned with it being just flat-out wrong.
I worked for an Army officer who once said, "Regulations are a GUIDE to action", rather than prescriptive. That's how I use Wikipedia - use it as a guide for further research, not as the final answer.
It's sort of ArtificiaI Intelligence using humans instead of computers - so Natural Intelligence? And the "guide" comment works for both.

I've done software since the mid 1970's, got real good at security and hacking prevention.
Sounds like it's time to take WikiPedo to task and "FIX" their Arrogance! Wait for it!

Wikipedia is highly corrupted in any of their stuff that has any sort of a modern day political connection. Their disinformation is always leftist.
This is unsurprising.

Elon, please get your Grokipedia up as quickly as possible. Wikipedia has a dangerous monopoly on online information and they are getting nuttier and nuttier every day. Until Elon's site gets up, as others have asked, where else can we go to look stuff up? As predicted AI is equally as biased as Wikipedia.

Yep!
The Leftist Liars are firmly in control at Wikipedia.
Remember, Wikipedia was only part of the Leftist Media near-Monopoly that existed prior to Elon buying what is now 'X'.
I recall Donald Trump using Twitter to blast holes in the Lamestream Wall of Lies, and the Lamestreams actually helped him via their compulsion to cover him in an attempt to discredit him. That was a big part of Candidate Trump's campaign in 2016.
The Leftists learned.
In 2020, Twitter banned Trump, and he had no large outlet where he could get his views before the American people. That, combined with every kind of 'Rat cheating imaginable, led to the HairSniffer being installed as pResident, with predictably disastrous results for America. Don't forget not only the 'disappearing' of Donald Trump, but also the 'disappearing' of any person, including leading medical researchers and scientists, who even tried to question the Left's pushing of the Covid 'Clot Shot' on the American population.
Then Elon bought Twitter, renamed it 'X', and Candidate Trump again had a voice that would reach the American people. That, combined with 'Kneepads' Kammie being perhaps the dumbest Presidential candidate ever, resulted in Donald Trump again becoming President, where he is now engaged is digging America out of the hole that the 'Rats drove us into.
The people running Wikipedia are Evil, as far as I am concerned.

Perhaps Wikipedia needs to be sued by the DOJ for any number of reasons, chief among them being the RICO statute?
