This week, Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) spotlights American Debunk, a political commentary site laser-focused on dismantling claims and narratives critical of President-Elect Donald Trump. Billing itself as a defender of Trump and conservative politics, the website positions its content as a counterweight to what it perceives as widespread misinformation propagated by the liberal media.
MBFC’s review highlights that American Debunk operates with a singular purpose: to debunk allegations and criticisms targeting Trump. From articles like “The Presidential Immunity Hoax”, which simplifies complex legal arguments to favor Trump, to “The Trump Abortion Ban Hoax”, which reframes debates on abortion policy, the site consistently delivers pro-Trump narratives. However, this comes with a heavy dose of selective framing, often omitting key details such as Trump’s judicial appointments’ role in enabling restrictive state-level abortion laws.
While the site has avoided failed fact checks in the past five years, MBFC rates it Right-Biased due to its unwavering alignment with Trump’s perspectives and Mixed for factual reporting, citing limited sourcing and a lack of transparency.
For readers seeking a staunchly pro-Trump perspective aimed at debunking criticisms or those on the left who want to understand the mindset of Trump supporters, American Debunk is this week’s most intriguing media review by MBFC.
