Which makes it even more absurd considering some of their other ratings. They rate The Washington Post as leftist. The Washington Post. The newspaper for respectable Republicans owned by the platonic ideal of a capitalist. The newspaper every movie and television show in the nation uses to show what the Republicans think about something while they use the New York Times to show what the Democrats think about something. When they say they’re telling you the US political landscape they’re just lying. It’s a garbage bot using a garbage source.
That’s not even to speak of all the other terrible problems with this source that have been documented by others elsewhere which I encourage you to read.

I agree with a lot your critique of WaPo but it is not favored by republicans at all. Centrist/center-left democrats 100%
Yeah, if I wanted a paper as a capitalist/conservative symbol, I’d use the WSJ.
Anyway, MBFC is garbage and this bot is actively harmful.
You should make a better bot :)
A bot for what? Just posting a comment every time saying “consider the source” or something? Because there is no truly unbiased evaluation of sources.
The Conservative newspaper in DC is The Washington Times
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Washington_Times
And in NYC, the Conservative paper is the New York Post
(Once you click the other link to Wikipedia, you can go look it up yourself without having to actually look at with paper.)
So:
In NYC, Times <=> Post
In DC, Post <=> Times
