NewsGuard's reliability ratings for news and information sources help users make decisions about which news sources to trust—and avoid misinformation and disinformation.
Our ratings, scores, and Nutrition Labels for websites are displayed next to links on search engines and social media platforms and cover all the news websites accounting for 95% of online engagement.
Ratings are conducted by a team of experienced journalists using nine basic, apolitical journalistic criteria. Each site receives a trust score of 0-100, an overall rating level ranging from “High Credibility” to “Proceed with Caution,” and a thorough Nutrition Label report detailing the site’s ownership and financing, content, credibility practices, transparency practices, and history.

Very useful.The Economist brought me here.
Great design, clear about methodology, reviewers I find to be trustworthy, sadly necessary.
Very handy to see who owns the news sites, and where they receive their funding.
it explains the ratings it gives and they always check out. I see it has "bias" against commentary and activism in favor of news, a bias i can live with.
This is a great extension. I've seen criticism that it's biased against conservative or right wing media, but those people cite Breitbart, Drudge, The Blaze. Uh, there's a reason for that, folks. And, it merely says "proceed with caution". Those sites do not practice sound journalistic integrity.
it works
With political bias against some new agency
It used to be alright, but now the nutrition label is behind a paywall. I can't justify this extension without and explanation for its ratings and im not going to pay for this.
This is a highly-biased service. It gives MSM high marks across the board. It does NOT allow for the fact that MSM outlets, all the way down to bottom-feeding Buzzfeed and the always-lying Media Matters, can get a story wrong, even on accident (though much is on purpose), and ANYONE calling out those stories will get the bad ratings from NewsGuard. You have to use your own brain, and keep thinking for yourself. Forget using a biased service. It will only lead you astray. Read all the viewpoints for yourself and figure out who is lying to you yourself.
Incredibly biased. They will give activist organizations that repeatedly go against their ethos a green checkmark. One example is Media Matters. They will also give a red exclamation mark against other websites that while not (no website is perfect to be honest), are certainly much, much better than other websites that do get a green checkmark such as the aforementioned Media Matters.
