Radical internet traffic cop NewsGuard has shown once again why its bona fides as a supposedly unbiased journalism referee are hot garbage in light of how it treats leftist outlets that peddled Hamas agitprop to attack Israel.
The New York Times, TIME magazine, Politico and Reuters are just four of a number of leftist news outlets that haphazardly gobbled up the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry’s claim that an “Israeli” airstrike blew up a Gaza-based hospital, allegedly killing 500 people on Oct. 17. A U.S. intelligence assessment later concluded that Israel was not responsible for the bombing. Both the U.S. House and Senate intelligence committees also absolved Israel. Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Mark Warner (D-VA) instead placed the blame squarely at the feet of a “failed rocket launch by militant terrorists.” Later reports also put the estimated death toll at a much lower count than what Hamas initially claimed.
But liberal media outlets across the internet just took the Hamas talking points and ran with them, which helped fuel mass anti-Israel protests and regional governments’ fury across the Middle East. MRC Free Speech America dug out the archived versions for each of the four outlets that originally smeared Israel in their reporting before later stealth-editing their stories and headlines. Then MRC researchers checked NewsGuard’s scores for the four respective outlets. In the three days that have passed since the incident, NewsGuard maintained the perfect 100/100 scores for all four outlets.
X owner Elon Musk recently stated that NewsGuard should be “disbanded immediately” for the way it ridiculously props up legacy and liberal media outlets who failed on the Gaza hospital story. It seems he was right.

It’s been said that NewsGuard is a Soros funded propaganda organization designed to discredit the truth and to cover for the current and growing communist revolution that is destroying the USA.
That site is just another evil leftwing fraud. RATs do this stuff all the time. Set up some pretend watchdog site that is nothing but a leftwing commiprop source. The SPLC or Snopes are examples. Their fraud is actually a RICO violation. A corrupt fraud organization operating for profit across State lines. Merritless Garrulous will be on it any day now.
The left serve their master the father of lies well.
Fake News did their job perfectly
They lied
