      Mbfc is ok but is itself biased towards Western and Pro-Israel content.

          What do you mean “is there proof”.

          MBFC isnt some professional shit. It’s some guys opinions about websites.

          It’ll call something like the economist which has endorsed the UK conservative party in the past decade “center left” for not being straight up facist.

          It’s not a very high quality thing.

          Best is to just actually look at their rating for places you know of or trust. Then go to any that cover middle east heavily. But easist is to look at USA propaganda orgs like Radio Free Asia where while they say they rank down propaganda sources are happy to rank it highly

      Mbfc is just one dude’s opinion. Also he calls the associated press and CNN leftist news outlets. It’s quite stupid.
