According to who? Columbia Journalism Review says otherwise.
What are your credentials?
MBFC, well-known in journalism circles for being an “armchair academic” and for reliance on the very subjective assessments they’re trying to suss out.
Who is the founder of MBFC?

Their methodology is literally “this is the number I feel like they deserve”

MBFC again and again. Do we know anything about MBFC that isn’t published on the MBFC site? Nobody knows who Dave Van Zandt is. His only credentials are: he’s registered as non-affiliated, he’s interested in politics, he has a physiology degree and works in healthcare, he has a “keen eye,” he’s been “doing this for a long time,” and he has a website.
His methodology is entirely subjective and his primary source of credibility is that people like you use his site.
Their methodology is arbitrary to the point of being incoherent.
Now, maybe if you could find this guy’s credentials it might give him a bit more credence. Oh, that’s right. You can’t.
Have you looked at their methodology? It wouldn’t pass a basic university-level writing course.
It’s really not. MBFC is run by a single guy. It’s methodology is basically worthless. It’s basically one dude’s opinion on what news sources he likes to read.
What do we know about that guy? Not much. He happens to share the same name as a very prominent lawyer/professor, which makes finding details about him very challenging.
Might be a hot take, but prosecuting the leader you elected just one election cycle ago might not be a sign of a healthy democracy?
An accident caused by a guided munition going haywire and seeking out the nearest “press” vest. An unfortunate but unavoidable accident.
Sri Lanka: stuck between a Chinese-owned and operated port and an India-owned and operated port.
Y’know, it would be great if it could be a Sri Lankan-owned and operated port… Adani Group didn’t even give them a choice in that matter.
Isn’t this the same video where the IDF claims to use a drone, then cuts to video of someone walking through a tunnel?
I thought the IDF statement was that they weren’t sending men down the tunnels because it was too dangerous?
The Palestinian Authority somehow took a more extreme position than both Hamas and the Israeli police.
The facts are that helicopters were used to indiscriminately target people in the kill zone and likely killed Israeli civilians, but the helicopters were by no means the only cause of casualties in Re’im. To claim that helicopters killed all 364 people doesn’t pass the sniff test.
