At AllSides, we believe there is no such thing as completely unbiased news.

We're all biased, making it impossible to write or curate perfectly objective news. Therefore, readers should not necessarily seek unbiased sources, but should instead consume news coverage across the political spectrum. 

Media organizations currently operate on a business model that seeks to make us angry at the "other side" in order to cultivate a partisan customer base, contributing to the increasing polarization seen in society today. By reading a breadth of coverage from Left to Right, readers can more effectively cut through partisanship and get a fuller picture of current events. What's more, exposure to other perspectives is vital to popping filter bubbles, which are the echo chambers that form when we only interact with ideas that we agree with.

There are several types of media bias, including spin, slant, sensationalism, omission, story choice, word choice, use of adjectives, and others.

See more about our work on making media bias transparent on our way to bridging divides and reducing polarization.

Wikipedia has become a powerful weapon in the left’s political arsenal. Initially launched to democratize access to information, it has debased itself through partisanship.

No longer a straightforward source of facts, Wikipedia today is pure left-wing propaganda — and its intense campaign against Vice President JD Vance is just the latest example of its bias.

The Easter season can remind people of classic Hollywood movies with religious themes. Every year, ABC still airs The Ten Commandments. People might break out The Passion of the Christ from 2004, or head to the theater to see The King of Kings or The Chosen: Last Supper, building on that streaming TV series on the life and ministry of Jesus.

It was a question so simple that a child could answer, posed by Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., to Mike Gonzalez, a Heritage Foundation senior fellow. “What does ‘ugga mugga’ mean to you?” Khanna asked.

“Nothing,” Gonzalez replied.

Fair enough. Maybe it doesn’t mean anything to you, either. If you didn’t know this exchange took place in the middle of a House Subcommittee on Delivering Government Efficiency hearing, you might wonder why it matters that Gonzalez was clueless about this or any other aspect of “Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood.”  

Right-wing media jumped to defend four recent executive orders signed by President Donald Trump to bolster the dying coal industry, telling viewers that reviving what they often incorrectly called “clean coal” would make the country more competitive with China and allow the U.S. to dominate the AI “arms race” by ensuring an abundant supply of reliable energy. Conservative outlets are also framing Trump as an ally to coal miners — even as the administration eliminates trusted resources to protect their health and safety.

Mainstream media outlets are scraping the bottom of the barrel in their attempts to portray the Trump administration’s enforcement of the Immigration and Nationality Act as racist and immoral. The corporate newspapers and the “Big News” online outlets are awash in sob stories about migrants who are now facing deportation because they broke American laws.

Fox News’ propagandists cheered President Donald Trump’s tariff climbdown as a “huge win” that shows he was playing “3D chess” and executing the “Art of the Deal.” Meanwhile, reporters at outlets including Fox pointed out that Trump had “capitulated” out of fear that his unilateral imposition of massive taxes on all of our trading partners was triggering a collapse in the bond market.

MSNBC seems to have found their latest outlet for their Trump-bashing fixation in the far-fetched conspiracy theory that the president’s recent tariff impositions were all a setup for insider trading beneficial to him and his close associates. On Thursday’s episode of The 11th Hour, host Stephanie Ruhle fleshed out this idea on the spot, based on the flimsiest of evidence, and refused to drop it even when her own panel tried to bring her down to earth a little.

“Well,” Ruhle began on the subject: 

Last week, ABC, CBS, and NBC spent nearly 100 minutes covering leaked messages from a private Signal chat for Trump administration officials, in just the first 96 hours after the messages were published. But those same networks spent only 13 minutes covering the actual military operation that was discussed in those leaked messages.
