Dave M. Van Zandt rates Al Jazeera English as “Credibility: Medium” and “Factual Reporting: Mixed”; this is depite the news outlet being recognized worldwide as one of the best in the world.
On Dave’s page, he lists two stories out of the enormous corpus they’ve produced in the last five years as evidence of his biased assessment.
The real issue Dave has with Al Jazeera, as evidenced by his pattern of bad, unscientific, and arbitrary classifications of middle-eastern journalism, is that their journalists occasionally do investigative reporting critical of the Israeli government. He has repeated the indefensible opinion that criticism of Israel is antisemitic.
Dave’s personal credibility gatekeeper site, MBFC, is toxic to any forum that considers truth important.

Hot damn. It’d be one thing if it was just accusing it of bias, but saying Al-Jazeera isn’t credible? That’s some high fucking brainrot.
