The method

Three scores, published with their reasoning

Every story is scored on the reporting behind it, not on the events. The reasoning for each score is published beside it.

The Spread

One email a weekday morning, opening on the day’s widest split between left and right.

Every side of today’s stories

Each section collects the stories that outlets across the spectrum are covering right now, with the left, centre and right accounts of each set side by side.

Politics →

Elections, governments and legislation, and how coverage of them splits.

Conflict & Security →

Wars, borders and defence, where framing diverges most sharply between outlets.

Business & Economy →

Markets, trade, work and prices, and which outlets reported which numbers.

Science & Tech →

Research, platforms and regulation, and the gap between a study and its headlines.

Climate →

Emissions, energy and extreme weather, one of the widest coverage splits there is.

Media →

The press itself: ownership, press freedom and who is covering whom.

How the sides are decided. An outlet’s placement on the spectrum is a published rating from a named third party, not our opinion of it.

Stories we are still following

MediaBias News keeps a page for every subject it has covered at least six times, holding that reporting in one place so a single decision can be read against the ones before it.

About MediaBias News

MediaBias News is a free, independent local news site covering the world, including United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Ukraine, Russia, Middle East. It reads 0 named news sources, scores how well each story was reported, and publishes its own account with the original reporting linked. 21 stories have been published so far. Every article is free to read, with no paywall and no registration.

What is MediaBias News?

A free news site that shows how the same story was covered across the political spectrum. Each story gets one page carrying the left, centre and right accounts of it, what each side left out, and the full list of outlets that ran it, with links to the originals.

How is an outlet’s political leaning decided?

It is not our judgement. Each outlet carries a published rating from a named third-party organisation that rates news outlets for political leaning and factual reliability. The rating source is named on the methodology page, and the rating is shown against the outlet rather than against any individual story.

What do the Trust, Craft and Hype scores mean?

Trust measures how well corroborated and evidenced the original reporting is; higher is better. Craft measures the quality of the journalism — context, balance, and fact kept separate from comment; higher is better. Hype measures how far the presentation runs ahead of the substance; lower is better. All three assess the reporting, not the events themselves, and the reasoning behind each score is published beside it.

Is MediaBias News free?

Yes. There is no paywall, no registration and no article limit. Coverage comparison, source lists and blindspot reporting are the point of the site rather than a paid tier of it.

Does MediaBias News take a side?

It publishes what each side reported and links to it, so the comparison can be checked. Where outlets disagree on a fact, the disagreement is reported rather than resolved by us. Where a story has only been covered by one part of the spectrum, that absence is reported too.
