Media bias is a prevalent topic, especially when it comes to politics and political issues. The job of a journalist is to objectively seek the truth and present the facts. However, not all journalists or other news professionals subscribe to that code. There are media outlets on both sides of the political spectrum which present stories skewed to favor their political agenda. This infographic, created by Media Bias Chart mediabiaschart.com, illustrates media outlets and their perceived bias. The graph goes from far-left to far-right political affiliations on the x axis. On the y axis, you’ll find their level of bias in analysis and reporting. There is also a color code to depict which outlets offer fair and accurate interpretations of the news, and which do not.
