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.
Fucking war criminals.
A nation given by an occupying colonial empire to those targeted by the Holocaust, who then displace local indigenous population only to establish a far-right nazi-like nationalist government who commits a Holocaust of their own against the others. They truly became what they hated.
So much for Never Again.
How many October 7ths has Israel now committed against the civilians of Gaza, 40?
It’s been 318 days since October 7, 2023, and a very rough estimate is around 40,000 fatalities, mostly civilians. On average, that’s 126 dead per day since Israel started this attack. So 35 dead is actually a pretty merciful day.
