    I have found MediaBiasFactCheck to be … not entirely trustworthy.

    Same with Snopes.

    the comment about the UN being more-trustworthy in terms of framing is dead-on.

    the ICC issued a warrant for Netanyahu’s arrest, not because of a blog-post, or because of mere-opinion, but because of an ocean-of-evidence sufficient to justify a warrant for a man’s arrest.

    You apparently discount that, as do many, & hold that websites are more-valid than the ICC’s determination.

    Good for you.

    The ICC’s right, in this case, in my opinion, & the opinion of many others.

      Hmm, why would a “blog” be a source for fact checkers? Someone ought to tell them they’re sourcing propaganda. And maybe someone should tell Brookings that too.

      The rest of your opinion is just… Your opinion. Your personal disapproval of mbfc means nothing. Unless you have another highly reputable source that supports your claim about mbfc, I’m gonna stop listening. It’s simply an attempt to silence information you personally disagree with and would not like to have discussion around. You offer no evidence to support your doubt of mbfc but your own anecdotal experience. They’re a widely accepted trustworthy source, even as described by their competitors.

      You attack the source and not the information. This article describes a take on how this punishment may not lead to peace. No one is “discounting” anything, I don’t even understand how you’d get that from what I’d said, since you’re saying I discounted something.

      Seems like a lot of users here want this article to say what they desire, but can’t find any way to quote where it says that.
