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 using appeal 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 Humanist Magazine Left-Center Biased based on editorial positions that moderately align with the left. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing and a clean fact check record.

Analysis / Bias

In review, The Humanist Magazine and website cover topics such as science, religion, media, technology, politics, and popular culture. Articles and headlines do not use loaded emotional language such as this Notoriously Humanistic: In Praise of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Jurisprudence. For the most part, all information is sourced properly. 

Editorially, The Humanist Magazine does not report on religion or conservatism favorably such as this What Would a Humanist Do? Thrilled about Fauci’s Humanism, Scared of Conservative Backlash and this COVID-19 Relief, Church Bailouts, and Cronyism under Trump. While clearly opposed to conservativism, they also do not report favorable on religious Democrats such as this Bible-Thumping Democrats Should Be a Curiosity. When reporting on science they take pro-science positions on climate change and coronavirus. In general, they report factually with a secular/atheist bias that aligns with the Left-Center.
