but i think you have the wrong community for this topic. We already tried on making a “Bias fact check Bot aggregator” but it got… i would say best case not welcomed.

I wouldn’t know which other forum I could use, as my question is to Mods and members.

The mediafact bot was unfortunately not very popular and not the most user friendly experirnce. But before it’s introduction, most unreliable sources were addressed by mods anyway, and in most cases they still are. Iir, the mediabias & having good sources are still covered by community rules, with some room for interpretation ofcourse.

I’m just interested in having a conversation about this ( to me relevant)topic, and how mods and involved posters were handling it.

Basically, I was comforted by the first comment, the one describing that seemingly, the whole world is having a hard time “dealing with it”.

Personally, I find myself reluctant to simply just post any sensationalist post, which would only lead to more polarisation, regardless the media outlet. On the otherhand, some news while still polarising could add to new relevant pov or offer new information. That’s how I probably will handle it. Any other insights are most welcome.
