In your earlier post, you stated, "I have heard in the past that Mags like Outside and Consumer Reports base opions on moneys from ads and endorcements." In your subsequent post, regarding Consumer Reports, you stated, "Do some research, they are known for biased reports."
Consumer Reports does not accept advertising and takes aggressive legal action against any business that uses Consumer Reports ratings in its advertising. In other words, if a company that is favorably rated by CR uses that rating in advertising, CR goes after them and stops them. Hence, you do not see mainstream advertising referencing positive CR reviews and you see no advertising whatsoever in CR or on the CR website. Conversely, just about every other "rating" entity allows itself to appear in advertising (e.g. J.D. Power). Consumer Reports' entire raison d'etre is to be the consumer's advocate and to avoid even the slightest implication that they slant their reviews in accordance with commercial support.
Some do believe that CR is biased. Subaru sued them for years regarding a negative rating on the rollover potential of the Sidekick. Sharper Image has it in for them regarding their review of the Ionizer.
Some suggest that CR reports are poorly designed. There is no meaningful evidence, to my knowledge, that CR is in any way biased.
If you have such evidence, kindly state it.
