NPR
On Extra Extra, NPR 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 10 recent articles from NPR, published over the past 20 hours. Recurring themes in its latest headlines include Next and Midterm.
The best way to use this profile is comparatively. Read NPR'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.
