Media Matters is rated left, therefore it is f**e news and gossip. It is funded by wealthy liberals. Moveon.org is one of their funders as well as George Soros.
Analysis / Bias
In review, Media Matters frequently uses emotionally loaded words that favor the left and denigrate the right such as this: Fox News bashes Bernie Sanders and misleads viewers about his policies after his Fox town hall. This report is properly sourced to credible media outlets and direct quotes. Here is another example of an emotionally charged headline designed to favor the left: The insane, toxic Trump adulation of Jeanine Pirro. Although biased in wording, this story is again properly sourced to OpenSecrets, the New York Times and the FEC. In general, Media Matters sole purpose is to paint the right negatively, while positively reporting on the left. Typically, they use proper sources and usually keep information in context, though opinions are clearly left biased.

“Media Matters for America is a 501(c)(3), web-based, not-for-profit organization. Media Matters was founded in 2004 by journalist and activist David Brock to "systematically monitor a cross section of print, broadcast, cable, radio, and Internet media outlets for conservative misinformation...every day, in real time." They publish research and analytic reports as well as rapid-response items and try to keep not only activists, but also the general public aware of misinformation. Some people consider Media Matters to be the media watchdog counterpart to the more conservative Media Research Center. They are also known for having declared a "War on Fox" in 2010.”
Media Matters is performing a vital service.

None of that changes the fact that it is a far Left publication and is prone to left bias.
