A rating site based on how much a media outlet fucks up isn't going to suddenly change the world over night people in a positive or negative way. So why would it be a bad idea to try it?

Maybe it'll give incentive for outlets to be more factual and less likely to alter news on the fly. The idea isn't about rating the news or single publications its about the sites and outlets themselves. I think people are misunderstanding the concept here.
I can't see how having stats along with a general public consensus would be a bad thing. It's just another choice. I see media outlets making the same arguments as people in this thread and they are weak arguments.

It would surely not be a bad idea to try.

Metacritic also works on a grand scale and even if some users outright lie and give dumb scores even then you are able to see what the good and the bad games are.

And this will give journalists some flack when they blatantly spread fake news like lets say the pewdiepie fiasco.

So in a way it might refrain them from being dishonest.

Im all for this
