That site isn't much to write home about.

That said, the Washington Times' bias issues aren't a secret.

Washington Times is well known to be far-right. With that being said, I'm confident that a good discussion would prove the worthiness of the article one way or the other.

> Media Bias / Fact Check

That website is garbage, it's just some amateurs slapping ratings on things. It should not be treated as authoritative in any way.

Because they list and link to the reasoning behind their opinion. You can read the sources and any extra information and form your own. This is not simply "we think it's bad, trust us".

Honestly, trust this is bad because we said so is not a logical response. At least hot link to the opinion of why.

The link seems to say more than "this is bad because we said so".
