NewsGuard

CNN’s Reliable Sources anchor Brian Stelter slobbered over the leftist website ratings firm NewsGuard as some sort of paragon of journalistic virtue. Stelter fawned in a Jan. 16 blog how NewsGuard announced that its business was “reliable enough to turn a profit.” But here was the senseless part: “Although there are many quibbles with specific rulings about certain sites, the results…

The left-wing media’s Ministry of Truth — website ratings firm NewsGuard — is at it again, slamming conservative news outlets while promoting liberal rags. And conservative leaders are furious.

It’s Episode Eighteen of MRC’s newest video series, CensorTrack with TR. This week we’re talking about another attack on conservative speech — NewsGuard’s rating system, which routinely gives right-wing sites lower credibility ratings than leftist sites.

Leftist media ratings company NewsGuard has struck another partnership to censor news outlets and publishers the platform deems objectionable. This time, the suppression will affect outlets that use a specific ad platform.

A new analysis reveals the extraordinary left-wing bias of website ratings firm NewsGuard, which should concern every American given that it is expanding its reach into cable and broadcast TV news. Liberal outlets were rated 27 points higher on average than news organizations on the right.

The leftist firm NewsGuard is going from skewing its rating system to favor left-wing websites to monitoring cable and broadcast TV news in an apparent attempt to become the new ministry of truth.

On Tuesday, The Washington Post lashed out at The Daily Wire for posting so-called misinformation that actually took the form of real news about COVID vaccines. Along with the Daily Wire, The Post also took aim at TMZ, The Epoch Times, and Breitbart for sharing news “misleadingly” to attract views to its platform.

An independent fact-checker has instructed readers to “proceed with caution” when viewing content from PragerU. NewsGuard described itself as “The Internet Trust Tool,” and claimed it rates websites for truth and credibility. NewsGuard gave PragerU a rating of 57 out of 100.

NewsGuard has found a new way to discriminate against conservatives while pretending to fight against so-called “misinformation” online. Liberal ratings firm NewsGuard has developed a service to “place ads on credible news sources.” Its system for determining whether a source is “credible” overwhelmingly favors left-wing news outlets. 

It turns out that the left has no problem taking “dark money” when it benefits their own political ends.

A New York University-affiliated organization has joined the left-wing bandwagon to attack conservative media on Facebook. In so doing, it ignored the social media platform’s obvious bias against conservatives. A study from Cybersecurity for Democracy claimed that “far-right” news sources received greater engagement on Facebook than news sources from other political parties. “When we look only…

A study released by the NYU Stern Center for Business and Human Rights decided that the argument that conservatives are being censored by Big Tech is “not legitimate.” “False Accusation: The Unfounded Claim that Social Media Companies Censor Conservatives,” levied the accusation that conservative censorship is a myth.

Leftist ACRONYM, the organization behind the Iowa Democratic caucus app fiasco, now has its hyper-partisan news network Courier Newsroom under legal scrutiny. Watchdog group Americans for Public Trust (APT) filed a legal complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) alleging that Courier Newsroom “must register as a political committee because of its ties to a Democratic-aligned group…

Academics funded by Big Tech only argue for more censorship of conservative thought. The Oxford Internet Institute, a department of the University of Oxford, released a study that smeared conservative sites such as CNSNews, Breitbart, The Daily Caller, The Blaze, The Epoch Times, PJ Media, and FrontPageMag as “junk news and disinformation.”
