Is it time yet?

Hello Rick,

Is it time yet to include the 2016 election on the media bias in the US page? Also, I find it odd that in the liberal section there is mention of specific outlets followed by largelu useless stale or dated garbage designed to minimize impact. In the conservative section it specifically mentions Murdoch. Are you not aware of the owners of Wash Post, NY Times, CNN, NBC etc.....? Or is it that Bezos, Slim, Roberts etc...are just not worthy of mentioning besides being amongst the wealthiest people on planet earth, owners of large media conglomerates and of course huge supporters of the democratic national party.

... readers who think they know all about mathematics because they took Algebra I in high school...

Yes, and not only do they think they know all about mathematics, but they think they know more about it than graduate mathematicians, and even professional research mathematicians. JBW (talk) 23:57, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your phrase "in some academic literature" implies that there is "some other" academic literature where juxtaposition does not have priority. Your claim requires a citation and evidence and not mere assertion.

The evidence for academic literature where juxtaposition takes precedence is provided, the evidence where it does nottake precedence is not provided. Hence no actual bearing. 2A00:23C7:8583:D401:5DB7:30DC:A41C:3676 (talk) 04:37, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll start posting some (of many) here.

Note that what this shows is not that multiplication by juxtaposition does or does not take precedence. What it shows is a lack of general agreement, and the desirability of using unambiguous notation, instead of insisting that there is general agreement.
