    This whole site has strong bias and mixed facts see this link :

    Bias Rating: FAR LEFT Factual Reporting: MIXED Country: United Kingdom MBFC’s Country Freedom Rank: MOSTLY FREE Media Type: Organization/Foundation Traffic/Popularity: Medium Traffic MBFC Credibility Rating: MEDIUM CREDIBILITY

    Also , the BBC is deliberately being targeted of foreign disinformation and influence campaigns, particularly from state-sponsored actors seeking to discredit its reporting. Not saying they are perfect, but they are discredited by the Zino- Rizzian propaganda machine.

      There is no denying that Novara Media has a left-wing bias, however is there any news outlet that has unbiased reporting of this conflict?

        Yes… Democracy Now for example, but they’d probably be considered even more left for reporting the truth.

          I am saying that all media has a bias, but I am not saying that doesn’t matter. I’d argue that Novara Media is quite transparent about its bias.

      Careful with these kind of bias or fact checkers, as they’re only relevant on the left/center/right axis, which is a biased framwork in and of itself. A centered position, which these checkers claim to be the least biased, are absolutely dependant on the Overton window and that window is currently so far off to the right, that any slightly leftist position might seem radical or even unthinkable.

      It also only makes sense, if you are some kind of hyper centrist, absolutely ignoring what “right” and “left” actually mean and then proclaim that the center is a good thing and any extreme from the center perspective is a bad thing. That’s either willfully ignorant or a right-wing perspective trying to appease to unpolitical people.

      This fact checker also proclaims mixed factual reporting in their summary, but in the segment it says “Failed Fact Checks: None in the Last 5 years”. This is dumb and misleading.

      One can see this kind of bias by them branding “concern for climate change, and racial-social equality” as far-left perspectives, while a sane person would see these things as the fucking bare minimum. Everything less than that is de facto regressive and right-wing.

      Many bbc journalists admit that bbc was biased towards Israel and use your brain instead of “factcheckers”
