Morningstar bias rating: "Overall, we rate The Morning Star as strongly Left Biased based on story selection and editorial bias that favors a socialist perspective. We also rate them Mostly Factual, rather than High, due to not utilizing hyperlinked sourcing but maintaining a clean fact check record."

There’s no point. Even the “supporting” article he refers to is an opinion piece written by a Director and fellow of a right wing think tank known for distorting the truth.
