A new version of AllSides’ Media Bias Chart (covers online political content only) has been released just in time for the 2024 election. The new chart “features six new sources and strengthened ratings for 10 outlets.” More detail according to the site:
Ratings Strengthened for 10 Outlets – ABC News (Lean Left), CBS News (Lean Left), New York Post (Lean Right), Fox News (Right), Newsmax (Right), BBC News (Center), Reuters (Center), The Intercept (Left), National Review News (Lean Right) and Opinion (Right).
Six New Outlets Added – Straight Arrow News (Center and Certified Balanced™ by AllSides), The Free Press (Lean Right), Semafor (Lean Left), Just the News (Lean Right), CNBC (Center), and ZeroHedge (Lean Right).
Also Reason Magazine (Libertarian), was moved from Lean Right to Center.
AllSides Bias/Methodology Statement: “AllSides balances the input of experts and ordinary people across the political spectrum so that our bias ratings reveal the average judgment of all Americans, not one elite group. We use methods like multi-partisan Editorial Reviews by trained experts and Blind Bias Surveys™ in which participants rate content without knowing the source.”
