From my observation the majority of news media manipulate much of what they report in significant ways. When they're reporting on politicians they're generally slanting something already manipulated.

Where the facts lie in many subjects is not immediately obvious.

Algorithms like this are a good idea provided that they're used wisely. I expect them to detect conflicts between treatments (with false + and false -), which would be useful to humans making their own judgements. Inflicting their results, without a chance of additional vetting, would not be a good idea.
