Simple premise - look up your preferred news source here and post the results in this thread. I'll go first:
www.crimethinc.com  Overall, we rate CrimethInc. left biased based on their political opposition to capitalism and advocacy for workers.

History Founded in 1888, The Financial Times (FT) is an English-language international broadsheet daily newspaper with a special emphasis on business and economic news. The paper originates from London, UK. The current editor is Lionel Barber.
According to the Global Capital Markets Survey, which measures readership habits amongst most senior financial decision-makers in the world’s largest financial institutions, the Financial Times is considered the most important business read, reaching 36% of the sample population, 11% more than The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), its main rival.
Funded by / Ownership The Financial Times is owned by The Nikkei, a Japanese news and financial information company that publishes the leading financial paper The Nikkei. The FT generates revenue through subscriptions, a hard paywall, and advertising.
Analysis / Bias In review, the Financial Times primarily reports economic news with a minimally biased tone such as this: Trump calls on China to drop levies on US farm products. This story, like all others on the website, is properly sourced. Editorially, the Financial Times sticks to economics and how politics impacts it. There is, again, minimal bias in reporting. In general, FT reports straight news with minimal bias and proper sourcing.

New York Times
Last updated on February 7th, 2022 at 07:42 am New York Times is Left Center Biased, liberal and trustworthy with high credibility and reliability.Factual Reporting: High - Credible - Reliable LEFT-CENTER BIAS
These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appeals to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.
Overall, we rate the New York Times Left-Center biased based on word and story selection that moderately favors the left but is highly factual and considered one of the most reliable sources for news information due to proper sourcing and well-respected journalists/editors. The failed fact checks that occurred were on Op-Ed’s and not straight news reporting.
Detailed Report
Bias Rating: LEFT-CENTER Factual Reporting: HIGH Country: USA Press Freedom Rating: MOSTLY FREE Media Type: Newspaper Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic MBFC Credibility Rating: HIGH CREDIBILITY History
The New York Times (sometimes abbreviated to NYT) is an American daily newspaper, founded and continuously published in New York City since September 18, 1851, by The New York Times Company.
The New York Times was originally founded by U.S. journalist and politician Henry Jarvis Raymond and former banker George Jones. Henry Jarvis Raymond is the founding editor, and according to an NYT article, Raymond stated the political position of New York Times as “We shall be Conservative, in all cases where we think Conservatism essential to the public good; — and we shall be Radical in everything which may seem to us to require radical treatment and radical reform.”
Raymond and Jones & Company initially published the NYT. Raymond was also prominent in forming the Republican Party during the 1850s. George Jones, a banker and politician solicited funds to launch the newspaper. Another early investor to the paper is Wells Fargo & Company, the United States Express Company and director of the American Express Co., Edwin B. Morgan. Adolph Ochs purchased the New York Times in 1896. Ochs had one daughter Iphigene Bertha Ochs, and she married Arthur Hays Sulzberger, who became publisher of the NYT after Ochs died. Dean Baquet is the current Executive Editor.
On 7/14/2020, Opinion columnist Bari Weiss resigned from the New York Times, stating, “Twitter is not on the New York Times’ masthead. But Twitter has become its ultimate editor.”
Read our profile on the United States government and media. Funded by / Ownership
The Ochs-Sulzberger family controls the New York Times through Class B shares. Since 1967, the company has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol NYT. Class B shares are those that are held privately. The owner and publisher of the New York Times are The New York Times Company, and the Chairman is Arthur Gregg “A.G.” Sulzberger, succeeding his father Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr. He is the sixth member of the Ochs/Sulzberger family to serve as publisher since Adolph Ochs purchased the newspaper in 1896.
Mark Thompson became president and chief executive officer of The New York Times Company in 2012, and the current board of directors can be found at this link.
According to Forbes, during the financial crisis of 2009, Mexican telecom mogul Carlos Slim Helú loaned The New York Times Company $250 million. The loan was paid back in 2011, and as of 2017, Slim sold $10 million worth of shares in The New York Times. According to a Bloomberg article, “President Trump accused Slim of using his ownership stake in the Times to influence the paper’s negative coverage of him. The Times and a representative for Slim deny this claim.” The New York Times is funded through advertising and subscription fees. Analysis / Bias
The News York Times’ coverage includes News (World News, National News, Business News), Opinion Pieces, Editorials, Arts, Movies, Theater, Travel, NYC Guide, Food, Home & Garden, and Fashion & Style.
A Politico article states Donald Trump has frequently criticized The New York Times on his Twitter account. Trump labels the NYT as “fake news,” “naive,” “dumb,” and “the failing New York Times.” However, CNBC reports the company has shown strong growth by adding 157,000 new digital subscriptions in the last quarter of 2017 and continues to grow.
The NYT looks at the issues from a progressive perspective and is regarded as “liberal.” According to a Pew Research Centers’ media polarization report, “the ideological Placement of Each Source’s Audience” places the audience for the New York Times as “consistently liberal.” Further, since 1960 The New York Times has only endorsed Democratic Presidential Candidates.
In review, the NYT utilizes emotionally loaded language in their headlines such as “Trump Again Falsely Blames Democrats for His Separation Tactic” and “A Financier’s profit-minded Mission to Open a Channel Between Kushner and North Korea,” however, they use credible sources such as law.cornell.edu, Financial Times, and The Washington Post. Story selection is typically balanced; however, wording tends to lean left in most cases. Failed Fact Checks
A factual search shows the New York Times has made false claims in reporting but always makes corrections to those stories as soon as new information is available. Further, failed fact checks occurred on Op-Ed pages and not straight news reporting.
“We have a host of issues associated with high B.M.I.s. But correlation doesn’t prove causation, and there’s a significant body of research showing that weight stigma and weight cycling can explain most if not all of the associations we see between higher weights and poor health outcomes.” – MOSTLY FALSE A political map circulated by Sarah Palin’s PAC incited Rep. Gabby Giffords’ shooting – FALSE “How Scientists Got Climate Change So Wrong” – Low Scientific Credibility
Overall, we rate the New York Times Left-Center biased based on word and story selection that moderately favors the left but highly factual and considered one of the most reliable sources for news information due to proper sourcing and well-respected journalists/editors. The failed fact checks that occurred were on Op-Ed’s and not straight news reporting. (5/18/2016) Update (M. Huitsing 02/07/2022)

I'm not going to really answer the question, because they're all biased. But yeah, NPR is less biased than MSNBC that I was calling my favorite. But now they (MSNBC) just seem like the reverse FOX. I don't think people want unbiased anymore. It won't sell, and the ones that aren't in it for the money won't be as popular IMO.
It's really strange because I can remember when all the networks had essentially the same narrative on what was going on in the world and we mainly just chose them on the likability of the anchormen. I now have no clue how reputable Walter Cronkite really was. We thought he was, and the people that watched the other channels were looking for somebody younger/more contemporary. Dan Rather was probably the last one of that breed.
I do know that distrust seemed to start with Viet Nam, but that was more distrust in the country because the networks all started becoming critical of the war at the same time.

I like crimethinc a lot, too, but I never thought of them as a “news source”
All the news sources I like are hyperbiased in favor of the horrifying and life destroying capitalist model that’s presently making the entire earth unsuitable for human residency
I just don’t give a fuck recently
I run through my news apps every morning the ap, cnn, nyt,
Then I watch (or listen to the audio of) Bill Maher, Fareed Zakeria, and George Stephanopoulos
I don’t care that they have a neoliberal capitalist outlook. I like the presentation.
Tbh, I’ve found that people who share my hatred for capitalism are annoying af
1) they almost always have some kind of identity hook: disabled, neurodivergent, trans, queer, and god help us if they have any drop of non-white in them - they’ll be on that like it’s crab legs at the buffet
2) their hatred for whitey hurts my feelings

I use to enjoy NPR until it turned into insane COVID Radio 24/7.
MSNBC/Fox/CNN are all unreadable/unwatchable nonsense. They are all on par with the National Enquirer level of reporting.
Aljazeera is usually good and at least makes me think a little bit with their opinion pieces.
The craziest thing to me is I more and more read the South China Morning Post. It is at least interesting to see what China wants people to think. I think they also update the webpage in the morning and then people are expected to get on with their lives and not obsess over the news like in the US.
I almost think CNN is owned by Trump and it is some kind of gorilla marketing strategy to keep Trump in the news. It is almost a guarantee if you go to cnn.com at any moment Trump is mentioned on the front page.

I remember a long time ago when you would go to the grocery store there would always be bullshit news papers at the checkout that would be obsessed with the idea that Elvis was still alive.
That is exactly what FOX/MSNBC/CNN is now.
CNN Crossfire from 1990 with Rush Limbaugh
The level of civil discussion and different opinions is just night and day compared today. If you tried to have that panel today both sides would just call each other Nazi's and that would be extent of the discussion.
IMO the news reflects the populace and the populace is not interested in actual discussion or learning anything.
I don't know what our bullshit news today has to do with Walter Cronkite. All 3 channels and basically every paper use to be the same because they were reporting the actual news lol. If the journalist system is working that is exactly what you would expect because they were reporting what actually happened and not a bunch of opinion pieces for clicks.

I only trust journalists commentators that support censorship and rely on corporate funded fact checking. It really goes along way with feeling certain they are a credible source of fact.
It has been working so well I have been convinced to throw critical thinking out the window with the scientific method and democratic process. My self-preservation rules over me like an iron titan stronger than before. I feel so much more inclusive as a social creature to collude with those who cannot tell the difference between freedom and suppression in the birth of this new modern dark age.
Sarcasm aside, I preferer feet on the ground unedited 360 degree camera swiveling live coverage. Otherwise it falls into the realm of entertainment and propaganda due to the limited content. Gotta love them talking points and 5-10 minute segments chalked up with so much information. It a miracle they can even fit one side of the story in that time frame.
I prefer to hear both sides of the story, and more so both sides that admit their bias in which is the first step toward truth. I know it is a pretty radical concept to listen to someone else's view in fear that I may have been wrong but it is better to be fooled than remain foolish too not ask more questions. If we are lucky, in the rare occurrence without a court order or FOIA, the self proclaimed trusted sources and fact checkers with doctorates in basket weaving will show us some evidence or a little data before it is to evident to hide months later.

Certainly not a source of breaking news or the minutiae of electoral politics - but for analysis of global events from an anarchist perspective, crimethinc has really grown into its own over the years.
This thread has definitely revealed to me that my perception of news source is fairly skewed from the average person though. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting - but FT, NYT, Reuters, and NPR certainly wasn't it hahaha. I'll use CBC for local news, but I can't remember the last time I read any of the above (except Reuters), and I still feel I manage to keep myself informed - probably some here who would disagree though.

It's kind of amazing in 2 years we will be in the middle of presidential campaign season.
At least Fox News consistently employs die-hard Democrats and gives them a voice.
How many black Republicans who oppose BLM are allowed on PBS, NPR, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN?

Thank for speaking about fact-checking and sources reliability. Its very important in these times. I also really appreciated that this fact-checker keeps separated the political bias from the reliability of sources.
Sorry I couldn't find my preferred media so I can't post a result. I know for sure some of them (my fovourite 'Il manifesto' in particular, libertarian comunist newspaper) are strongly left biased. Nonetheless i consider it trustable about facts, considering it usually talks (and question) its sources. Also they clearly state their bias in their front page, so you know.
Personally i think a political bias doesn't implicate less factuality. Once you report facts in their integrity you remain factual, then you can correctly express your bias when you talk about your opinion and interpretation of facts.
