Center doesn't mean better! A Center media bias rating does notmean the source is neutral, unbiased, or reasonable, just as Left and Right do not necessarily mean the source is extreme, wrong, or unreasonable. A Center bias rating simply means the source or writer rated does not predictably publish content that tilts toward either end of the politi...

This is because some outlets, such as the Wall Street Journal and The New York Times, have a notable difference in bias between their news and opinion sections. For example, on this chart you will see The New York Times Opinion is rated as a Left m...
AllSides does not rate outlets based on accuracy or factual claims — this is a bias chart, not a credibility chart. It speaks to perspective only. We don't rate accuracy because we don't assume we know the truth on all things. The left and right often strongly disagree on what is truth and what is fiction.

- Spin. Spin is a type of media bias that means vague, dramatic or sensational language. When journalists put a “spin” on a story, they stray from objective, measurable facts.
- Unsubstantiated Claims. Journalists sometimes make claims in their reporting without including evidence to back them up. This can occur in the headline of an article, or in the body.
- Opinion Statements Presented as Fact. Sometimes journalists use subjective language or statements under the guise of reporting objectively. Even when a media outlet presents an article as a factual and objective news piece, it may employ subjective statements or language.
- Sensationalism/Emotionalism. Sensationalism is a type of media bias in which information is presented in a way that gives a shock or makes a deep impression.
