I don't think so. That whole website is premised on an elementary logical fallacy. Just because a news source is left- or right-leaning doesn't make it inherently less trustworthy than a "centrist" one, in fact all you've done is introduce your own untrustworthy ideological bias into the judgement criteria by proactively dismissing anyone who doesn't align with your definition of centrism.

it's just a test of how much the position agrees with the people running the website haha

there's no such thing as "bias-free" propaganda, and propaganda isn't inherently subversive
