Chicago Tribune

Center B — Mostly Factual

On Extra Extra, Chicago Tribune is grouped with center 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 B reflects generally factual reporting, though it may frame stories to fit an editorial viewpoint. 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 Chicago Tribune, published over the past 19 hours. Recurring themes in its latest headlines include Chicago.

The best way to use this profile is comparatively. Read Chicago Tribune'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 center sources we track include BBC News, Al Jazeera, Associated Press, and Reuters.
