Today we’re releasing our third and final simple Media Bias Chart® for 2025. This one focuses on TV/video sources.

We call this a “simple” chart because it includes fewer but larger source logos in an effort to resolve previous complaints that charts are too crowded and the logos are too small, making them difficult to read. We’ve released two simple charts already this month, one focusing on web/print sources and one on podcasts. You can find those here. 

In all, our team has rated 810 TV and video shows for their bias and reliability. This chart contains 25 of them. (find a list of those 25 here). You can download a free, licensed version of this simple, magnified Media Bias Chart® for TV/video sources here!

For this simplified version of the chart, we included the overall scores for cable TV news networks. The overall network scores are determined by a weighted average of all the content from that network that we’ve rated. You’ll find these seven networks on the simple chart:

• CNBC TV Network
• CNN TV Network
• Fox News Channel TV Network
• MSNBC TV Network
• Newsmax TV Network
• NewsNation TV Network
• TYT TV Network

The rest of the chart is filled with individual TV and video programs that have large audiences.

Remember, in order to make the logos as large and as readable as possible, we have magnified a portion of the chart and removed the sections around the edges. That means that we have omitted any sources that fall entirely within the “Most Extreme” right and left bias categories and the “Contains Inaccurate/Fabricated Info” reliability category.

Here’s a list of the sources that fall within the green box on this chart. Our analyst team has found that these sources are generally reliable and minimally biased:

• ABC: World News Tonight with David Muir
• CBS: Evening News
• CNBC TV Network
• CNN TV Network
• Fox News: Special Report w/ Bret Baier
• NBC Nightly News with Tom Llamas
• NewsNation TV Network
  

These simple charts do help with visibility, but they don’t help us to solve the question we get most often — people who are looking for a particular source, and it’s not included on that particular chart image. That’s why we created an Interactive Media Bias Chart® and a free app for Android and iPhone that allows you to search for sources by name. Both are free (with daily search limits), but the interactive chart requires a subscription in order to search all 4,400 web, podcast and TV/video sources our team has rated.
