How to Tell if a News Site Is Reliable
It’s happened before, and with another presidential election looming next year, it’s going to happen again and again. The spread of “fake news,” the incorrect labeling of real news as “fake,” and overall confusion as to how to tell the difference.

The Poynter Institute is offering some guidance via its International Fact-Checking Network, which has compiled a list of unreliable news sites it’s calling “UnNews.”

Here’s how they did it:


To create the index, we combined five major lists, then eliminated the sites that were no longer active. We only used lists that were public and curated by established journalists or academics, contained original data (rather than information from other lists), stated their criteria for inclusion and defined how they graded different sites (see our methodology for more).

There are more than 500 “UnNews” sites on the list in “phase one” of the index. The next phase will work to “automatically remove inactive sites, add sites by following URL redirects (which often lead to new fake news schemes) and harvest related domains,” the report says.

The list is searchable and the sites have tags that label them as biased, unreliable, conspiracy, satire or clickbait.

There are more links in the OA.

"the incorrect labeling of real news as “fake,”

No MAJOR media outlets on your list Bob ?

Why ?

It's not "Incorrect" to label ANY News? media, that puts out "Fake" CRAP like "Hillary was gonna win hands down", or "Trump is a Russian Spy and colluded with Russians" as the only reason for winning for two Fucking years, as "FAKE FUCKING NEWS" !

EVERY Fucking person in Congress, meets and talks with Russians. They even have donuts with Russians, Kiss Russian cheeks, and they even tell Russians that they will have more leeway after an election.

I hear that Kids of Senators can make money with China for Big Buck returns for "Personal gains" also.
