It is disappointing that Matzav has gone the way of YW. It wasn't always this way.

Honestly, I didn't watch what they posted. I just saw them claim "top pathologist" and googled the guy.

Not really the place for this comment, but the Jewish media "establishment" is extremely disappointing.

The main curator for Matzav, who posts 98 percent of their stories, has no connection to the newspaper owned by some of the same owners. There is rarely any crossover of news between the Matzav and the newspaper.

Disappointment only comes with expectations. I don't expect anything of any quality, so whenever it's anything above the level of a Supermarket tabloid, it is a surprise.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I disagree. The Yated is far more selective and credible with their sources, although they are of course strongly slanted one way politically.

Matzah recently has been a total joke.

It has basically become a mirror site for Newsmax.

If you consider political talking heads and radio show hosts as credible sources, yes.

Compare it to Matzav and I think you’ll agree they’re not the same.

Fair enough; though the MO of blurring opinion and news is similar.

Aside from the original new articles written by Yated writers, which definitely skew Conservative, they (like Hamodia) reprint tons of articles from syndicate sources, like the New York Times news service, The Washington Post, and the Associated Press.
