Lean spectrum

On the spectrum

Where the compared sources sit by political lean and credibility. Sources without a published US lean are not placed.

Lean is the average AI rating of an outlet’s own stories, from 0 (left) to 100 (right); opinion pieces are left out, and a reposted story counts toward its original publisher only when the original is confirmed. Credibility is the average AI rating, made on each story, of the outlet’s transparency, editorial standards and corrections record. Each score is published once at least 10 stories are rated; every dot’s card shows its story count and 95% range.
