Thread: A guide for news sources

I saw this on a friend's FB page. She was/is looking for unbiased news sources (and I wanted to know too)

Here's what seems to be a more updated version of the chart :



CNN got upgraded for some reason.

The fact that "MSNBC" the home of Brian Williams, is that much higher than Fox News discounts the whole chart to me. Fox, CNN and MSNBC should be on par with each other.

Let's say the chart is more friendly towards liberal than towards conservative sources. But do you find any errors when it comes to placement ? The order in which they are arranged from left to right etc ?

Did anyone notice where Al Jazeera is placed ? In the green zone and with no biases.

I think the boxes apart from the "mainstream" news sources are more or less correct. I do not believe the mainstream news is not biased. Even the local news stations skew to the left. Of course, I see this from an East Coast market which tends to be more liberal. It's possible that it is more "centrist" in the middle of the country.

The main newspapers here in Norway tend to range from extreme left through to centrist-right. This is compared to what voters actually vote. There is definitely a leftist bias on average. This is demonstrated further by statistics on what journalists vote.

Bogus. NBC, CBS, and ABC are NOT "minimal partisan bias." Not even close.

Fixed it for you.

Anybody who thinks aluminum hatted Alex Jones tells the truth I lose complete respect for. or anybody on John's bogus chart! (Love ya Johnny )
