Analysis / Bias
In review, Liberty Nation produces articles and information that strongly favors conservative politics. There is the moderate use of loaded language that favors the right such as this: DEMS ON SOCIALISM: IGNORANCE AND ANGER. Liberty Nation utilizes poor sources that are on our questionable list such as CNS News, which has a very poor track record with fact-checkers. In general, all stories favor the right and are highly opinion-based (propaganda).
Overall, we rate Liberty Nation Right Biased based on story selection that favors the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to use of poor sources. (D. Van Zandt 11/23/2017) Updated (8/20/2018)
