That is a valid consern. I get the rating info from adfontesmedia, so I do not judge the poltical views of each outlet and what is condisered to be left/center/right. There is no moderation what so ever (that can be a good or bad thing). But the website definelty still contains a few bugs so that might be the issue you are running into.
Could you elaborate a bit on your second point. I am not quite sure I fully understand.
- hellbanTHIS 5y agoNot sure about your sorting filter, refreshing the "center" sources is giving me some OAN, Epoch Times, New York Post, Breitbart, Daily Kos, Gateway Pundit - maybe "center" is a mix of everything? It should probably be just sources from the top center 1/3 of the chart at adfontesmedia

- ptero 5y ago> Could you elaborate a bit on your second point. Looking at opposing views can help bridge the gap and encourage reasonable compromises. But in order to achieve this, the presentation need to be rational and (as much as possible) non-confrontational. Unfortunately, most current articles focus on enraging the supporters, not on informing the public. Showing such articles to either supporters or opponents is unlikely to help them understand each other. This is not a criticism of your side; but a criticism of most articles in the mainstream media. Look at old (30+ years ago) publications for comparison. We need to get back the similar quality of journalism; then showing people different views on the same topic can help us understand each other and reach some acceptable consensus. My 2c.
