newsguard was biased and not successful at all. if you want it then install newsguard extension.
the west always labels east as fake, and the east always labels west as fake.

- WittycatJan 23, 2021Iron Contributorthey don't label as fake have you tested it before talking about ?
They juste say (this website is known for never correct error)
Or they are known to publish false content.
But they don't label anything as "FAKE"- HotCakeXJan 24, 2021MVP"they don't label as fake have you tested it before talking about ?

Yes I know what I'm talking about, do You?
I've seen it and tested it before, a lot.
the wester media labeling eastern news outlets as fake and untrustworthy is known to everyone. it's an obvious FAKE.
I have no problem if you want to talk politics, again 😉 - DeletedJan 23, 2021
HI Mcqael,
Here is an image of what NewGuard checks for, it doesn't' say it is false news or not.
Yes, I have tested it and on day one it was free on Edge, I was using it!! They have a healthguard one as well but that is only for hospitals
- WittycatJan 23, 2021Iron Contributori was reponding to "the west always labels east as fake" from hotcakex, since like the screen shot you have sended, they don't label as fake nor block they just warn the user with infomation (who was valide only at the time of the review), so it's just an information to ajust your critical mind, if it's totally red warning, if it's greeen warning but less than red.
You can be biaised and said truth
So this extension isn't the only thing you must follow and use our critical mind.
- DeletedJan 23, 2021That is very true, why then make a list from Newsguard and make it anymous if the news can't always be considered fake and true depending on where you are???

that has nothing to do with being anonymous, fake and truth shouldn't depend on the location.
as long as the big news companies are controlled by rich people, nothing's gonna change.
