And don’t say I’m putting words in your mouth

but that’s exactly what you did.

You said that my comment isn’t fact, so what about it isn’t factual?

you expressed an opinion.

Because their scale of left bias - unbiased - right bias with a complete lack of centrist bias is proof that they don’t. Here’s the proof of my claim

all that you’ve proven is that it is, in fact, you who cannot distinguish centrism from being unbiased because you conflate the center of a bias spectrum with political centrism in a context where the two are only political bias is being discussed and you’e trying to inject political alignment as a:

Straw man

A straw man fallacy (sometimes written as strawman) is the informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction.[1] One who engages in this fallacy is said to be “attacking a straw man”

Please tell me where on their bias spectrum a centrist biased source would go. I’m not conflating anything, the site is.

I just explained how that’s not what this spectrum illustrates. your lack of comprehension is not my responsibility.

What does the spectrum illustrate if not bias? Because it sure looks like it’s a scale of bias: Extreme Left Bias, Left Bias, Left-Center Bias, Least Bias, Right-Center Bias, Extreme Right Bias. And it sure seems to correspond with the part of the article right below it that explicitly says “Right-Center Bias

And again, where would a centrist biased source go on that spectrum?

Also: ad hominem if you want to just link logical fallacies.

And it is your responsibility. You are trying to disprove what I said but have offered no proof otherwise.
