Left-Leaning A — High Factuality

On Extra Extra, CBC News is grouped with left-leaning outlets, a placement drawn from the consensus of independent media-bias raters (AllSides, Ad Fontes Media, and Media Bias/Fact Check) rather than our own opinion. Its reliability rating of A reflects a strong track record of factual, well-sourced reporting. That rating is a guide for weighing what you read here, not a verdict on any single article.

We are currently tracking 8 recent articles from CBC News, published over the past 11 hours. Recurring themes in its latest headlines include School and Election.

The best way to use this profile is comparatively. Read CBC News's coverage of a story alongside how outlets on other parts of the spectrum handle the same event — the facts usually overlap, but the emphasis, language, and what gets left out often do not. Other left-leaning sources we track include CNN, NBC News, CBS News, and ABC News.
