How We Measure Media Bias

Each source in our database is classified using a multi-factor model that examines editorial tone, framing patterns, headline sentiment, and topic selection over time. Sources are placed on a five-point spectrum: Left, Lean Left, Center, Lean Right, and Right. The weighted bias indicator aggregates article volume per category to show where the overall media conversation is gravitating.

Unlike static ratings, our analysis is continuously updated — every article published in the analysis window shifts the needle, giving you a real-time view of media objectivity rather than a point-in-time snapshot.
