Why NewsGuard Is Just As Bad As The Pro-Censorship Global Disinformation Index

“Both the Global Disinformation Index and NewsGuard are U.S. government-funded entities who are working to drive advertisers’ revenue away from disfavored publications and towards the ones they favor. This is totally inappropriate.”

"The New York Times and The Washington Post both received 100 percent ratings from NewsGuard, yet both botched reporting on the Russia-collusion hoax, the Hunter Biden laptop story, and many details surrounding Covid — and those are merely the “big” stories and easy examples.

In contrast, The Federalist, which received one of NewsGuard’s worst ratings for supposedly “repeatedly publish[ing] false or misleading information in significant news and opinion stories,” out-reported those elite, legacy media outlets, accurately detailing those stories and many more. The Federalist also broke many important stories that never even made the pages of the other outlets."
