Map of Media Bias

Maybe this will settle a few arguments here. Yes, the Daily Mail is strongly on the right. Yes, the Guardian leans left. Reuters is in the middle.

LOL, this claims the Wall Street Journal is center. It's not. Neither is The Hill

You have your own map, R1--based on what studies?

by Anonymousreply 2July 12, 2021 8:54 PM

BBC is in the middle too.

by Anonymousreply 3July 12, 2021 8:57 PM

NEW YORK POST is far far to the right LOL

R3 that gave me a proper laugh.

by Anonymousreply 5July 12, 2021 9:01 PM

The Huffington Post has been a joke for years. Shouldn’t be on there at all.

R5- What or where is the BBC nowadays ?

by Anonymousreply 7July 12, 2021 9:05 PM

I'm familiar with this services products but it's not perfect. The Daily Mail opinion belongs in that far right column, but their news stories are no more right wing than Fox News, which is in second column from the right. And they say they are not taking a position on "credibility," but by rating them at all, they are asserting that these are credible news outlets. I don't think NewsMax, the Daily Caller, and the Blaze belong there at all. If they do, then why did they exclude Breitbart? I'd like to see what their "scientific" methodology consists of.

For instance, see the link. News Max should not be on that chart, period.

I wish there were a paper in the center other than USA Today.

More arbitrary two-dimensional pseudo-intellectual Boomer scaremongering BS. Fail, OP. Fail, fail, FAIL!

I'm laughing at Politico's placement. They are allegedly "fact checkers" but they pick and choose what facts to present.

R1, the WSJ is listed twice. News is center, opinion right. I agree with that. The NYT's A section should be listed under J for joke. It used to be fun to try to figure out the propaganda. For about 6 years it is so obvious, it is no longer fun.

by Anonymousreply 13July 12, 2021 9:21 PM

The only truthful section of the NYTs is Arts & Leisure.

R11, How is presenting a chart (supposedly) based on some kind of studies fearmongering? Didn't you know media often leans left or right? Did that scare you? Your use of the word fail makes me wonder if you are the Daily Fail poster who drops those garbage threads on us frequently--daily, in fact!

The chart didn't hold any surprises for me. I assumed the major services--AP, Reuters--would be neutral. I thought some discussion might ensue of who reads what. Silly me!

What about GRIT?

[quote]some kind of studies

Well, that's specific enough to be credible to me! 🙄

by Anonymousreply 17July 13, 2021 12:34 AM

NPR and BBC are "center"? Uh. no. Even they wouldn't say that.

by Anonymousreply 18July 13, 2021 12:39 AM

Did Mrs Domenech pay to have the Federalist listed in the first place,

by Anonymousreply 19July 13, 2021 12:47 AM

Another chart, more accurate.

The Daily Mail just publishes whatever gets it the most clicks, I'm not sure that an editorial policy exists any longer?

by Anonymousreply 21July 13, 2021 1:07 AM

AP is center, huh? The news organization that glorified Castro when he died? “For decades he was a source of inspiration and support to revolutionaries from Latin America to Africa”.

They’re all subjective

BBC in the center [centre]...?

by Anonymousreply 24July 13, 2021 1:51 AM

Why isn't PBS on either chart?

by Anonymousreply 25July 13, 2021 4:03 AM

These organizations have all outlived their usefulness. We have Twitter now. We can get the news right away as it happens without having it filtered through these organizations with their biases like some sort of Human Centipede.

by Anonymousreply 26July 13, 2021 4:07 AM

TWITTER is your news source?
