I’m only going where the evidence leads me. What quality journalistic outlets does the right have other than WSJ, the Dispatch, and the Economist?
The growth of Substack has been interesting to watch. It's definitely a mixed bag, but there are some very high-quality content producers on there.
Personally, I'm not really interested in "right-wing" and "left-wing" news. I'm interested in objectivity. Of course, everyone has a bit of bias baked into them, but some are less blatant than others.
I've seen the way that the "high-quality" outlets cover stories. Unfortunately, they mostly coalesce around an approved talking point and regurgitate the ever-loving snot out of it.
I know you downplayed the COVID lab-leak example from the article in the OP, but it's interesting, to say the least, how the legacy media coalesced around the fact that it was just a "conspiracy theory", even though the scientists they were quoting were saying in private that COVID very well could have originated in a lab.
Let's look at a more recent example: Measles outbreaks. The legacy media was all over the fact that there was a measles "outbreak" (roughly 10 cases) in Florida, because they could say it was because of Ron DeSantis and his surgeon general. But they were much quieter on the fact that there is a measles outbreak 5x larger than Florida's in Illinois that began in a migrant shelter. One fits the approved narrative, the other does not. Sure, they report on both, but in one case, it's all DeSantis' fault that there are 10 cases in all of Florida, but in the other, "high vaccination rates" are the reason there were "only" 50 cases in Illinois.
The article in the OP was spot-on. As an independent, I'm pretty good at identifying right and left wing propaganda. I don't have any party loyalty whatsoever. But much of what I read from the "high-quality" journalistic sites is nothing more than filtered, approved talking points. There is no doubt that the legacy media tilts very hard to the left, and it's not because they are better at journalism.
