The Free Press
On Extra Extra, The Free Press is grouped with right-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 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 The Free Press, published over the past 19 hours. Recurring themes in its latest headlines include Death and Writ.
The best way to use this profile is comparatively. Read The Free Press'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 right-leaning sources we track include Fox News, Breitbart, National Review, and NY Post.
