Emotions and insults.
Bias is to be expected, and so I let a certain degree through as long as it doesn't overall affect the whole writing in a significant way.
The second half of that makes me think of extreme atheists that go out of their way to degrade religious people, and vice versa. Of course, I can't be made to believe in god, but there's also a certain line I don't cross unless I get pushed far enough. It's hard to not have a bias when it comes to beliefs, one way or the other.

I bookmarked that but I'll have to read it later. Looks kind of personal already, though.

Definitely awful spelling and or grammar.
Using tons of insults in articles will immediately make me stop reading too.
I've sort of gotten used to bias in articles, but too much is obviously bad.

Horrible spelling and grammar, yes...Some people even do it intentionally to act cute, and that's just not at all, and it's an annoyance when you're trying to decipher what they even said.
Insults, to me, in my opinion are not too bad if they are justified based on the writer's opinion, because we can't choose how they think. People think differently, so insults wouldn't be bothersome unless you could relate to it a lot or it was offensive to you as you took it to heart.

Everyone pretty much listed it out.
To me, it's mostly biased statements that loses credibility.

Yeah everything has pretty much been listed. I tend to snort in disbelief at articles that try to make everything sound completely evil or like the world is ending. There's a lot of those types of articles posted in our News section...

Yes, I agree. The media is teaching everyone to blow things out of proportions.
I won't believe articles from certain sources because of this.
