PARIS, Nov 27 (Reuters) - Six teenagers go on trial behind closed doors on Monday, accused of involvement in the beheading of French history teacher Samuel Paty by a suspected Islamist in 2020 in an attack that struck at the heart of the country’s secular values.
The teacher had shown his pupils cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in a class on freedom of expression, angering a number of Muslim parents. Muslims believe that any depiction of the Prophet is blasphemous.
I prefer to use Ad Fontes site. I find it through most accurate source.

Seems like another valuable resource! Glad to have another source to help evaluate what I read.
Some of the “Overall Scores” from Ad Fontes seem odd to me, but still pretty good. I think most of the articles they evaluate are user-submitted, and that might skew their scores as it’s not a random sampling. I would choose to weigh articles in a differently, but that’s just my personal opinion and it doesn’t negate the benefit.
Specifically, I would point out the “Individual Content Sample Scores” vs the “Overall Score” for Al Jazeera as an oddity. https://adfontesmedia.com/al-jazeera-bias-and-reliability/ In my opinion, Al Jazeera has a lot of good reporting, but also has a strong bias that effects their overall credibility. I still like reading them, but I wish they would remain more focused on objective facts rather than opinion.
