Admins: we want some feedback from the community about the media fact check bot.
Everyone: we hate it, turn it off.
Admins: ok, we heard you, we’re going to keep it on.
Wait, what’s wrong with the bot?
That site seems heavily right biased and not very factual. What’s your point?
Yeah because they don’t make stuff up. They just have a huge bias.
Except they literally make up false allegations about UNRWA and the UN.
I don’t really downvote the bot too often, but YouTubers I watch have made me lump ground news in with nordvpn, raycons, hellofresh, factor, fuum, betterhelp, and the whole lot of influencer companies who probably have customer acquisition costs of $60+ and seem to survive, despite usually turning out to be junk. Anything advertised that way becomes garbage in my opinion.
I don’t mind Ground news, though I don’t pay for it and use it mostly as a news headline aggregator.
IDK why people didn’t just block mbfc instead of down voting it every time it shows up
They don’t want the community to develop a trust for what very well could be a disinformation bot.
I’m actually kind of OK with that b/c it pushes it to the bottom of the comments, so it’s out of the way but still easy to find if i’m curious.
Yeah some people, like OP, will post some blog and call it credible journalism. Abs maybe it is, but how the hell would I know?

By developing your own media literacy and attempting to verify facts in the things you read by using other sources. Better to evaluate news sources yourself than relying on a biased bot.
Lol, sure bro.
Actually, in your specific case you’re probably right, it’s probably better if you don’t put any more strain on an unsound framework.
Aw, he thinks his opinion matters
Would you waste your time replying if it didnt?
