If you regularly get your news from podcasts, it’s important to know whether the information you’re consuming is unbiased and reliable. The podcast edition of Ad Fontes Media’s monthly static media bias charts can help.

Our monthly static charts provide a glimpse of media bias and reliability ratings for a selection of sources. The February edition of our monthly chart features only 62 of the more than 720 podcasts we’ve fully rated (that’s more than 2,700 human-rated episodes!), because it’s visually impossible to show all 720 on the same chart.

If you want to see how our analysts rated podcasts not featured on this month’s chart, you can explore them using the Interactive Media Bias Chart® on our website, as well as our Media Bias Chart app, available for iPhone and Android. 

On the February chart, 10 podcasts make their debut:

• Club Random with Bill Maher
• Eye on Veterans
• Flyover Country with Scott Jennings
• Into America
• Radiolab
• The Brendan O’Neill Show
• The Gerry Callahan Show
• The Kyle Kulinski Show
• The Lincoln Project
• Too Many Lawyers

Whether you’re a seasoned listener or new to these podcasts, take a look at where they fall on the chart, and let us know what you think. Podcasts have become a popular medium for information, and just like other platforms such as websites or TV, it’s important to monitor the bias and reliability of the podcasts that are part of your own news diet.

When you add in our web/print and TV/video ratings, our analysts have rated over 3,660 sources, with commercial data on over 10,000 sources.
