Media Matters for America (
MMfA) is a politically
progressive media watchdog in the United States. The organization has a stated mission of "comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media". Set up as a
tax-exempt, nonprofit organization, MMfA was founded in 2004 by journalist and political activist

Media Research Center. It is known for its aggressive criticism of conservative journalists and media outlets, including its "War on Fox News."
