Analysis / Bias
In review, NewsAmmo does not provide any original content and serves as a Conservative news aggregator. The sources they aggregate from, with the exception of The Hill is a who’s who list of right-wing, questionable, and conspiracy websites. Here is a list of some of the Questionable sources they utilize: Breitbart, Gateway Pundit, and the Conservative Tribune. From the conspiracy group we have: Infowars and ZeroHedge. Many of the media sources NewsAmmo aggregates from have very poor track records with fact-checkers.
Overall, we rate NewsAmmo Questionable based on aggregating news from far-right conspiracy sites and those that have published fake or misleading news with an extreme right-wing bias. (D. Van Zandt 12/15/2018)
