A Sea Of Red

Just stumbled upon this and found it to be an interesting concept. This is a link to their "bias" page which explains how they rank bias and shows their opinion of the bias of various news sources.

You drive the bias ratings.

Oh. Hmmm. Well as a Democrat, I can just sit all day in mommy's basement and accuse everyone of being influenced by big banks and Jews.

CNN, NPR, and ABC are moderate? Bahahahahahhhhhh

Interestingly, the Drudge Report according to this site is "liberal".

ahhh, I completely had that idea a couple of months ago. Of course I had no idea how to go about creating such a site. And they probably had the idea more than a couple of months ago, so good for them.

NPR is center? Wow.

Always has been. When a source gets constant complaints from the right for being too liberal, and constant complaints from the left for being too conservative, they're doing it right. There's an audit of their guests done each year and they typically have more conservative guests than liberal.

Nobody ever complains NPR is too far to the right. What on earth are you talking about?

(btw, my bias is that I'm a right wing libertarian who believes in limited government the way our founding fathers intended)

I suppose my timing is just off whenever I turn NPR on. Other than the car-talk guys, who seem fairly neutral since they don't talk politics, I don't recall hearing many conservative opinions on NPR. Quite the contrary.

this is funny. Liberals claim CNN sold their soul to the GOP and is a republican station. Just like the SOME of LGBT community calling Anderson Cooper a sellout for being a fiscal conservative republican.

Just go read the people on Democratic undergound about it


Drudge Report is conservative as it gets.

I thought their Schwetty Balls segment is very liberal!

Curious as to what people get for the bias quiz they have. I naturally got libertarian seeing as how I am pro business, very conservative on economics, and liberal leaning on social issues.

Interesting that ABC, NPR, and CNN are rated as "center". Also odd that WSJ opinion is rated "right" whereas WSJ News is "left center". Shocked to see Drudge Report is "left center", I don't buy that rating for one second.

I don't see Drudge as "Left Center," they are about as right wing as FoxNews. CNN is probably moderate. ABC, NPR as moderate? Pardon me while I laugh...out loud. I typed it out because the acronymn is for teenage girls who text.
