        Are you trying to tell me “Iran said to dismiss US, Arab calls for restraint — even if it sparks war” and “IDF says slain Al Jazeera reporter was a Hamas commando, took part in Oct. 7 massacre” aren’t fully credible, highly factual, left-center ways of summarizing what’s currently happening in the Middle East?

          Mozz I’m gonna admit I used to dislike you, but seeing you post so valiantly for Palestinians lately has really changed my opinion on you.

        The bot is accurate. Most people getting mad at Times of Israel are just getting mad because Jews. It’s nominally accurate, and most of the political scandals of Israel itself are reported there. It’s clearly not propaganda.

          Want to address the current headlines I quoted in my other comment?

          They’ve got a right to express their side of things, of course, but pretending they are “credible” in terms of, you can take credulously the stuff that’s printed there, is absolute hilarilty.

          This piece of shit bot rates The Washington Post as a leftist. This thing is beyond crazy. No one with any credibility can defend it.

            Is it the bot doing or does it just source it from grounded?

              I can’t imagine in what universe you find that to be a purposeful distinction.

                I use grounded as my news source, I never looked too closely… If this is taken from there, I should reavulate my use of the app.

                But hey, downvote away!
