It was so annoying I blocked it.
First it takes way to much space, it should be a 1 liner for stating the bias, and then be able to folds out to show the rest.
Second the data is not very useful, for instance it doesn’t say if a source i left or right leaning, although I suppose that trustworthy means left, as we all know facts have a liberal bias. It also doesn’t show the owner of the media, which has become one of the most significant factors to judge media from.
Also I don’t trust the bot to give accurate info, as the source it uses may itself be politicized.

This bot sure got a lot of hate, actually MBFC seemed to get most of the hate.

Even if it’s not the perfect solution it’s a great step towards solving a problem that I think most people can agree on.

Thank you Rooki for you work.

Why are you using a bot that rates media unreliable because they are anti-Zionist using literal pro-israel lobby groups as their source?

Overall, we rate Mondoweiss as Left Biased and Questionable due to the blending of opinion with news, the promotion of pro-Palestinian and anti-zionist propaganda, occasional reliance on poor sources, and hate group designation by third-party pro-Israel advocates.

Thanks. On voyager it’s a little clumsy. The header, body, and footer takes up a lot of space. Trying to close/collapse the comment just expands the comment more.

There’s no reason this needs to be large or in your face. It should be small, like a reference. I’d try to reduce word count, lines, and just overall how much space it uses.
