    Interesting...I use Snopes when I can and find it usually reliable in fact checking both right and left BS that I see on Facebook. WaPo Fact Check seems incredibly biased to me.

    I'll look at this one for a while.

    Of course it ain't rocket science for them to declare "The Truth Seeker" to be Tin Foil Hat, "Pravda" to be Questionable Source, and "GregJarrett.com" to be Right Biased. ;)

    Bobda seriously I was googling Politico to see what kind of a site it was and that's when this popped up. However it happened it looks like a cool site to put in media forms and see how factual they are vs. biased. Some are listed as definitely leaning one way or the other but factual. Factual is factual..... that's the most important to me.
    If you know something is blatantly biased at least you can take that into account.

    As far as I can see the only facts that you are interested in are those anti-Trump, or Republican.

    Trump does give one plenty of "anti" opportunities I have to admit.
