News Media Across the Political Spectrum

AllSides (founded 2012) measures bias differently from Ad Fontes (described above). Its source base is narrower, for example, limited to the written, political, online content produced  by1400 U.S. news outlets. Politically-themed podcasts and broadcast/video journalism are not included. 

Unlike Ad Fontes,  AllSides does not measure accuracy or reliability of claims of publications, focusing solely on whether a publication leans left, center, right -- or somewhere in-between. Read more about the AllSides methodology, including the use of Blind Bias Surveys. 

Like Ad Fonte's  the AllSides Media Bias Chart version is interactive; detailed profiles of each news outlet are a click away.

One special/interesting feature: AllSides tracks the shifts over time of a publication's political leaning.
