"Frustrated with the “liberal” bias of the popular Wikipedia, teacher, Andy
Schlafly has taken his frustration and created the conservative answer to that:
conservapedia.com. Conservapedia refers to terms, such as: “hike in minimum
wage” as 'a controversial manoeuvre that increases the incentive for young
people to drop out of school.'"
This is a real puzzle to me, the same with the talk about YouTube being liberal. I think that what the real concern in both of these questions is that they show both sides. Wiki is a website that is open source and anyone can add to or edit an entry. However if I were to change an entry in Wiki to what it says in the conservative version it would probably be changed. Not because the site has a liberal bias, but because that definition is clearly twisted, and false. One could argue that that is the effect of a higher minimum wage, but it is not an honest definition of it.
