    MBFC is a conservative project to give their rags more credibility while painting the news organizations with good records of being objective as left leaning. There is no actual center designation. The best anything can get is center left or center right. So on center left you have stuff like NYT, feeding into the idea that mainstream news is biased left. And on center right you have the Ayn Rand Institute, getting it’s credibility washed by being placed in any category with the word center in the name.
