Bias Rating: LEFT Founded in 2020, the Black News Channel (BNC), based in Tallahassee, Florida, is a 24-hour news channel and website covering news, sports, politics, and entertainment with a focus on the African American community. According to their about page, “Black News Channel is the nation’s fastest-growing news network and the only provider of 24/7 multiplatform programming dedicated to covering the unique perspectives, challenges, and successes of Black and Brown communities.” The website lacks transparency as they do not disclose ownership. Read our profile on the United States government and media. Allen Media LLC, a subsidiary of Entertainment Studios, owns the Black News Channel. The owner of Entertainment Studios, Byron Allen, is a frequent donor to Democratic candidates and causes. Advertising generates revenue for the TV station. In review, the Black News Channel (BNC) publishes news, sports, politics, and entertainment news. Articles often focus on the successes and issues of the black and brown communities. Articles and headlines sometimes contain emotionally loaded language, such as this Corporate America Failed to Deliver Two Years After George Floyd’s Death. News and information are usually properly sourced from credible media outlets such as Politico and NBC News. Editorially, BNC labels opinion pieces as OP-ED in the headlines. Op-eds favor a liberal perspective with concern for issues such as social justice, civil rights, and race, such as this Black Mississippi Senators ‘Protest’ Vote to Ban Critical Race Theory. They also report negatively on conservatives and former President Trump, such as this Trump Pushes Conspiracy Theory About Buffalo Protester. This story comes from the Associated Press. In general, BNC reports news factually and with a moderate left-leaning bias. Overall, we rate the Black News Channel (BNC) left biased based on editorial positions that favor a socially liberal perspective. We also rate them Mostly Factual in reporting due to a lack of transparency. (D. Van Zandt 07/23/2022)
