These lists have been frequently used in attempts to train ML models for detecting dis-/misinformation, but I think the results are somewhat questionable.
You can also enter into an endless debate over the reliability of the ranks and the rankers. Further limitations include limited geographic coverage, slow-pace curation and inability to pick-up "flash websites" designed for propaganda dissemination, and so forth.
