MBFC:
Overall, we rate The People’s Dispatch as Far-Left Biased based on promoting Marxist-Leninist perspectives. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to consistent one-sided reporting that lacks context and a complete lack of transparency.

I’m curious, do you think there is some bias in this article? What is it?
In case you doubt their translation, you can find the original source of the statement by Petro here.
Is there some other source, which you consider less biased, which has published an English-language translation of his response to Trump?
Or, would you consider any reporting at all of this head of state’s response to be intrinsically biased?

I used that link to look up the source. It wasn’t here so I posted it here. I do the same with archive links.
I didn’t report this and don’t have a problem with it. In general, the fact that they don’t disclose the country they operate out of is problematic since we can’t know if they’re operating from a place where telling the truth is illegal.
Edit: I should also say that it’s important they’ve never failed a fact check. I don’t really care about them having editorial bias as long as we know what it is.

Do you post MBFC links on articles from outlets they classify as “unbiased” too, or just the “biased” ones?
As others have pointed out many times before, the entirely flawed premise behind MBFC is that centrism correlates with credibility and/or factualness.

cool 👍

Who doesn’t disclose where People Dispatch operates out of? MBFC? Yeah, they don’t, because they’re lazy hacks who’s job it is to impugn the reputation of anyone doing any journalism that isn’t in service of the status quo.
since we can’t know if they’re operating from a place where telling the truth is illegal.
A couple minutes of research shows that (although their contributors are all over the world) their legal entity People’s Dispatch Ltd. is registered in New York. So, the way things are headed, I guess actually you might be on to something here soon 😬
Edit: I should also say that it’s important they’ve never failed a fact check. I don’t really care about them having editorial bias as long as we know what it is.
The notion that any outlet could have no bias in what they decide is and isn’t worthy of reporting on, especially the people MBFC says are unbiased, is ridiculous. And it’s usually not difficult to see what an outlet’s bias is without relying on a 3rd party using their own bias to classify someone else’s.

Wow, a lot of people emotionally disagree with that quote. You can tell because 30+ down voted and you maybe see 1 of them commenting to take a stance.
Cowards who are afraid of reality deserve no respect.

Maybe… it got all those downvotes because it was a ridiculous thing to post in reply to an article which is simply reporting facts without any bias whatsoever, and posting that comment here in this context appears to be an attempt at discrediting Petro (who is, in fact… a leftist 😱 …watch out) in response to his standing up to to Trump?
And maybe all those other people downvoting it didn’t bother replying because I had already posted my reply (which adequately pointed out the absurdity of it) right after the comment was posted? 🤔
