Anyone that tells you they're "neutral" or "unbiased" is a fucking liar.

Everyone has a bias, and if you believe otherwise you're either gullible or a propagandist.

'questionable news sites like RT' C'mon man. The hells this bullshit. Yall so propagandized that anything to the left of let's nuke Iran is 'far-left'

Seriously tho get non US media. The corporate media in the US will say anything is 'not credible ' if it contradicts the powers that be. Babies from incubators in Iraq? Remember that? From the 'totally credible ' US media establishment

As I’ve said before, Media Bias/Fact Check is a joke:

Look at this person who thinks that media fact check is somehow unbiased themselves. Here I think we have a picture of them in our emoji store:

Tell us about their "anti-corporate bias" next. I was just making fun of the same page you cite when I was discussing this site other day.

There is no such thing as neutral. That site is a good example of it: they're personally highly biased towards "centrist" liberal positions to the point that they conflate it with writing "just the facts". They have no consistent methodology, they're just showing you their own inability to detect bullshit when it's something they agree with.

For example, as it has often done in its history, The New York Times has been carrying water for fascistic settler colonial narratives, including hiring an obvious racist to write implausible articles about alleged sexual assaults by Hamas on October 7. Articles contested by the people interviewed, the families and friends of those who died. They censored their own attempts to admit fault and their workers creating media about the errors. Only in the last week have they fired the author in question, which will surely be used to imply that this is the only thing wrong with their consistently biased coverage that focuses almost exclusively on interviewing state department officials, Zionist NGOs, and Israeli government officials.

Did you find any of that on "media bias fact check"? Did it rank the NYT lower than The Gray Zone on its ability to report factually? For having a Zionist bias? Even this one example I've provided is far more damning than anything you've listed.

You can't outsource media criticism, you have to do it yourself and engage with it.

Dave Van Zandt is a registered Non-Affiliated voter who values evidence-based reporting. Since High School (a long time ago), Dave has been interested in politics and noticed as a kid the same newspaper report in two different papers was very different in their tone. This curiosity led him to pursue a Communications Degree in college; however, like most 20-year olds he didn’t know what he wanted and changed to a Physiology major midstream. Dave has worked in the healthcare industry (Occupational Rehabilitation) since graduating from college but never lost the desire to learn more about bias and its impacts.

The combination of being fascinated by politics, a keen eye to spot bias before he even knew what it was called, and an education/career in science gave Dave the tools required for understanding Media Bias and its implications. This led to a 20-year journey where Dave would read anything and everything he could find on media bias and linguistics. He also employed the scientific method to develop a methodology to support his assessments.

If you're going to discredit a source, please try to do the legwork of actually discrediting it. A guy with a Bachelors in Physiology and being "fascinated with politics since high school (a long time ago)" cannot be considered a reliable source, nevermind one who claims to follow the "scientific method" which he, presumably, learned while studying to become an occupational therapist or through his 20-year journey of reading political news.

If you have photos of this man, any record of interviews with him, records that support his credibility/the incorporation of his company, records of his job in occupational rehabilitation, details about his team, or anything else, please feel free to share them. Please do not confuse him with Dave E. Van Zandt (Princeton BA Sociology, Yale JD, London School of Economics PhD, ex-managing editor of the Yale Law Journal, ex-Dean of Northeastern's School of Law, ex-President of The New School).

I hope you're aware that "objective", "unbiased", "neutral" journalism is a myth and a complete impossibility. Any reporting on reality requires that the reporter takes a stance on how to report that reality. While some news sources are completely untrustworthy (Radio Free Asia for example) you should not believe ANY news source is ever unbiased. You should remain sceptical no matter what you read, and instead of blindly consuming the "good" news media, you should instead attempt to independently verify the claims made.
Remaining sceptical means looking into things yourself instead of going to mediabiasfactcheck.com lol.

This article is completely fine, it's not writing falsehoods or making up shit, nor is it in any way any more opinionated than your average mainstream drivel - it's just negatively opinioned on groups that larger news media is supportive of.
