ESPN.com is the sports news website of ESPN Inc, a multimnational sports media company. It is owned by the Walt Disney Company and Hearst Communications.
A June 2021 independent review conducted by a Center-rated AllSides staffer found that when ESPN does stray from sports coverage, it sometimes exhibits a left-of-center bias in story choice and subjective framing within news articles.

Previously, ESPN had been in our system as Not Rated.
