Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Of course, believe your eyes. But don't forget to look deeper and understand that there is not only right/left wing bias.

And that bias is usually also affected by the factuality of reporting.

You said one was more biased than the other. You have yet to show that is the case.

Here you go then: From mediabiasfactcheck.

That still doesn't show that it is more biased than the other source. That just shows that it has a bias, something no one has denied.

Such a report does not exist for jewishpress. They also have a higher factual score than aljazeera, and so forth we can assume they are less biased.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

We can not assume any such thing.

You made multiple statements saying it was more biased as if it were a fact. You also said that site would prove that it is more biased.

Now you are admitting it doesn't prove it. I gave you plenty of chances and you kept moving the goalposts and pretending you didn't say something when I even copied and pasted you saying it.

So you've been dishonest this entire time.

I don't think we need to continue this conversation. I'm not interested in talking to people who construct elaborate but obvious lies.

We don't have to keep continuing this discussion. I have proven several times that aljazeera is being more biased and less trustworthy source than jewishpress. It’s very evident from checking sites like mediabiasfactcheck that aljazeera has a lot of bias. Such comments are not present at the report for jewishpress.

To me it seems like you just refuse to believe that something jewish can be trusted more than aljazeera despite being provided with thorough evidence.
