Media Bias

Media Bias is a data page on the Feed desk of Glassbox Auditing. Each top news story across the outlets that ran it, grouped by the political lean that Media Bias/Fact Check (and AllSides where its file is on hand) rate those outlets, with the outlets' factual-reporting ratings and the stories one side of the scale mostly did not run. Which outlets carry a story shapes what each audience sees, and a story with wide coverage on only one side is easy to miss from the other.

Where does the data come from?

Items on this page come from Google News story clusters, the GDELT Project (gdeltproject.org), Bing News, story search by Media Cloud, GNews.io and the outlets' own feeds; outlet ratings by Media Bias/Fact Check (and AllSides where it rates the outlet). Each item links to its own source. All sources, how items are checked.

What does this page lead to?

News (Feed): The News page lists headlines by outlet; this page counts, for the same top stories, how many outlets on each side of the rating scale ran them, so a headline there can be set against its coverage mix. (either way, depending on the cause; same day; sector scale) Source: Google News: headlines and outlets of the same story (linked, not fetched).
Election Outlook (Domestic Intelligence): When a candidate or race is among the day's top stories, this page shows which outlets covered it; the mix of outlets is a record of coverage, not a measure of how people vote. (either way, depending on the cause; days; economy scale) Source: Google News: headlines and outlets of the same story (linked, not fetched).

What feeds this page?

Fact Checks (Feed): Media Bias rates outlets as a whole; a fact check rates one claim. A checker's rating of a claim says nothing about the outlets that carried the story, and an outlet's rating says nothing about one claim. (either way, depending on the cause; days; sector scale) Source: Google Data Commons fact-check data feed: ClaimReview markup published by each fact-checker (compilation CC BY; each review's own licence in its sdLicense).
News (Feed): A top story on the News page usually appears here as one cluster of outlets; the more outlets run a story, the more rated outlets there are to compare, and a story with few rated outlets shows as thinly rated. (moves the same way; same day; sector scale) Source: Google News: headlines and outlets of the same story (linked, not fetched).
