Excellent tool. Been using it as a journalist for over five years. Each rating come with a full explanation, with provided examples and fact-checking history.

I think this tool has an admirable cause, but like most tech it inherently leans left. If you shift all the bias ratings a half or full notch left you're most likely looking at an accurate picture. It's a good tool to get a quick glance but can be quite misleading if not used with discernment. The easiest way to spot this bias is if you do a side by side rundown on presidential candidates, specifically Joe Biden vs. Donald Trump. Under the key policies section one of them has their objective policies, the other has their objective policies plus subjective information thrown in there to discredit said policy. Nonsensical. If you pride yourselves on being the ruler in which to judge bias, examine yourself for said bias.

I think it works well, but the fact that it considers FOX NEWS as "questionable or fake news" on every article shows that this "media fact checker" clearly has a bias. I would rather seem them be fair and actually label Fox News are "right wing". Be consistent.
