This site offers rumour, gossip, innuendo as a substitute for factual, accurate news. (This site is linked to known gossip and conspiracy sites – trueactivist.com, yournewswire.com, etc.)

This site is untrustworthy.
Helpful
This site republishes news from sites that are unreliable and they do so without any apparent fact-checking being done. Untrustworthy. They need to tighten things up if they are going to lift themselves from the mire of online false news.

Nothing wrong with this website. Articles are sourced. They have feet on the ground. WHY does this news source get a yellow WOT dot when 10 people say they trust it and 2 don't? WOT, you have some secret agenda with your rating system, that's for damn sure!

I don't see anything wrong with this site at all. It's a good site. Totally safe for kids too.

Mint Press is one of the few honest, reliable news agencies out there that isn't in the pocket of either the right or the left. Journalism as it used to be.

From Media Bias/Fact Check:
"Notes: MintPress News is an independent Minnesota-based news website launched in 2012. It covers political, economic, foreign affairs and environmental issues. Mint Press has a left wing bias in reporting, but is well source and evidence based in reporting. (5/18/2016) Updated (1/12/2017)"

Center-left blog which doesn't have the highest investigative journalism standards and may blur the line between information and commentary.

Mint Press News is a Center-Left news source that is mostly factual. Nevertheless, corroboration from other sources is recommended.

I've found no problems with this site.
1
Great site offering unbiased views, and interviews with people who would not usually get air time.
2
No issues with it. Negative ratings seem to be politically motivated rather than a genuine concern.
5
Talks about political subjects outside of the mainstream. Totally safe and great site.

To be fair, I have only encountered one particular issue with this site, and that it issued the following post without due diligence, and without updating it to inform its readership that the story was - in fact - fake.
[Edit ***** - In the space of a week, I have found extra reason to distrust this source. The following link is nothing more than conspiracy theory laden bunkum. The Rothchilds have no ownership of any central bank anywhere. https://www.mintpressnews.com/222364-2/222364/]

I don't know what the rest of their content is like, but if this sort of thing filters through without correction or withdrawal, then the site cannot be trusted.
It is a sad day for a website, when it gets taken down by Buzzfeed.
