Israel has been using the distraction of the Gaza invasion to seize land in the occupied West Bank and attack Palestinians. The New York Times is ignoring the story.
“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.

Gonna be honest here, kinda disappointed in mediabiasfactcheck for using the “hate group designation by third-party pro-Israel advocates“ as a measure of credibility while also stating they don’t fact check this source. Brings down my view of them which sucks cause I liked them.
I appreciate Darkthoughts for linking the credibility measure for discussion though. More posts need that.
Maybe we can’t rely on organisations founded by and for white americans to properly report on the credibility of people who are being bombed by white Americans and their allies.
Mondoweiss exhibits a strong pro-Palestinian bias and is extremely critical of the Israeli government. It frequently publishes content that is negative toward Israeli policies and actions, often portraying them in a highly critical light. For example, the article “Genocide in service of Nakba 2023” is emotionally loaded and one-sided against the Israeli government due to its use of highly charged language and its singular focus on alleged atrocities committed by Israel without providing context or perspectives from the Israeli side. The piece characterizes the situation as a “genocidal war on Gaza” aimed at “depopulation and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people” in “brutal but deliberate stages.” It accuses the Israeli government of engaging in “widespread destruction and industrial-scale slaughter,” cutting off essential supplies like water and food and targeting civilian areas for destruction. The article alleges that these actions are part of a strategy by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to achieve “complete forced displacement” of Palestinians, describing this as “ethnic cleansing” and “genocide” used as a means to an end. This piece is a one-sided opinion by the author of.

MBFC is ran by Zionists they endorse clear Zionist lobby sites such as the ones slandering UNRWA.
MBFC should have been removed as a serious “news check” long ago.
How dare they have anti genocide bias!
It’s also for “mixing opinion with news” as if it’s not immediately obvious which is which. Also I’d like to see the “anti-Zionist propaganda”.
That zandt really hates sources that paint Israel as bad, especially in this case when it was stated by a Jewish anti zionist
