Today we’re releasing the June edition of the Media Bias Chart® for Web/Print, which features 111 of the 2,940 websites our team has fully rated for bias and reliability.

That’s right — this chart contains logos for 111 websites. We’ve fully rated 2,940. When we publish one of our charts, the questions we get most on social media are from people looking for a particular source on the chart, and it’s not there. That’s because you can’t put thousands of logos in one two-dimensional image — not if you want to be able to see them, at least.

This chart contains the Associated Press (AP), Washington Post, The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, but it doesn’t have the BBC or Reuters. Why? Because their reliability and bias ratings are similar to those of AP, which means they fall in the same area of the chart. The logos overlap each other, so we can include only one of the three at a time.

We do our best to feature different sources from across the bias and reliability spectrum from month to month, but there will always be sources missing from every chart (more than 2,800 are missing from this website chart!). If you’re interested in our ratings for a website not on this chart, you can search for it (and all 4,700 web, podcast and TV/video sources we’ve rated) on our free mobile app for Android or Apple (daily search limits apply).

You can also search for sources on our Interactive Media Bias Chart®. The free interactive chart on the website lets you search 250 of the top websites, podcasts and TV/video programs (daily search limits apply). To search for sources not included in those 250 (and to be able to filter our data by ownership, geographic location and more) you’ll need to subscribe for as little as $5 a month.

Sometimes people are looking for a source on our monthly charts, and it’s on there but difficult to find. We include as many logos as possible in order to meet demand, but we realize that the chart can get crowded and hard to read. That’s why we publish a list of all sources on each chart. You can find a list of the 111 sources on this edition of the website chart here. (Charts with podcast and TV/video sources will be published later this month).

Sources in the green box (top middle) of the chart have been rated by our team to be minimally biased and to provide fact-based information. Here’s a list of all sources from the June Media Bias Chart® for Web/Print that fall within the green box.
