"Medicare for All promises a system that is fairer, more efficient, and vastly less expensive than America's bloated, monopolized, over-priced and under-performing private health insurance system."
Other places to discuss US News and Politics that don't endorse a political science charlatan's attempt to shift the overton window to the right:

Dave M. Van Zandt has no academic media literacy qualifications. He's not a social scientist. He should not be running a site that is being used to censor news feeds.
He admits that his system for judging 'bias' is pseudoscience, but at the same time claims that MBFC's purpose is to debunk pseudoscience. He appears to have no idea what science is. His methods for rating credibility are not public, repeatable, or by his own admission falsifiable.
He is actively harming media diversity and LW should be ashamed for taking this charlatan seriously.
Admitting that measuring bias is inherently subjective does not make it pseudoscience, and the methodologies used to measure each publications bias are listed on each page. This is not tantamount to “pseudoscience.”
It’s never presented as more than an opinion, and you’re free to disagree with it.
