Pretty much indispensable - everyone should install this. Sure it's not perfect, as it only rates the website, and not the article itself, but it is still pretty darn useful. It would be good if it could include links to the fact checking sites for specific articles that have been investigated.
really helpful when pulling up articles from friends or family members
Very useful, helps me not waste time on articles that are clearly too biased one way or the other to be useful. Also love the "factual" content ratings.
A reliable tool in my fact checking kit.
I've found it to be correct in almost all cases, the few that aren't are mostly new sites that haven't been evaluated, you also have to keep in mind there are those who will complain no matter what, so give it try and should you happen across something not quite correct inform them of it, instead of just whine and complain lord knows the world had enough whining etc these last 4 years
It's useful to have as you can tailor your news intake from the least biased sources. Sometimes however the fact-check status of website seems a bit simplistic. For instance Quilette, is flagged as misinformation based on some articles touting some more than controversial ideas, but they also have good ones. Whilst this website is however definetely right-wing biased.
Very useful as a first step to evaluate news outlets.
This is probably the extension I rely on most. I wish everyone would use it. I am confident about my facts, so I am confident about my decisions.
This is a high quality and unbiased tool. Hard to come by that these days. Also, if you think it's biased, you might check your own calibration :)
Very Helpful for finding facts not feeling in the media.
