meowmeowmeow 755 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I've often come across comments on OH saying xx site is biased, pressed/salty, full-of-haters, etc. So... What is the definitive ranking/characteristics of most reputable netizen gossip sites? Which ones are relatively accurate and logical and which ones are utterly delusional? Examples: NB, Nate, Naver, KPKF, Pann, any that I missed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swiftswitchsurf 12,276 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 NB and KPKF are not a knetz site. They're translators Pann and Nate are the same because Pann is on Nate. You look at Pann to see what the active kpop stan community is talking about. You look at Naver if you want a look at what the general public is talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElleMae 3,519 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Fans think any site that doesn't have positive comments about their bias all the time has an agenda. I'm not sure what you mean by "accurate" since sll of them translate netizen comments, and from what I know most sites translate them fairly accurately.

Stepkdramafan226 6,734 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Most of the sites translate a certain view of a topic and it convinces naive i-netz that it represents the views of the whole Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SulIi 1,540 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I have to admit NB don't translate biases comment. Maybe the article has low upvote but she always translate top comment first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize the first two were only translators. Retrospectively speaking, I think a lot of the comments I read were actually criticizing the translators for selective exclusion of positive/negative comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retrospectively speaking, I think a lot of the comments I read were actually criticizing the translators for selective exclusion of positive/negative comments Some do that a lot. For example there will be a positive naver article and a negative pann article so some might translate the negative pann article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICETERO 9,070 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I see, that makes sense! No problem ^^ If a scandal happens don't always rely on one news page it might be the only one that's actually pressed. Naver is usually reasonable and positive and not only kpop fans comment there whereas pann is filled with kpop fans and are usually extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
