Hey, just as a heads up we discourage the posting of " media bias checkers" here because it is intellectually sloppy to outsource whether you should trust a source to some guy who has their own bias. And MBFC is just some guy, who has no credentials and doesn't do any sort of scientific analysis to determine his ratings.

Please reply acknowledging you understand this within 48 hours.

Dunno what they said but wouldn't using MBFC and my own knowledge be better than just my own knowledge and my own biases?

I guess I see it like this: if I think something is inaccurate should I debunk it or should I post "this random right winger online says it isn't credible" (and MBFC is a right winger, but not a fascist)
