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 on our questionable list, such as CNS News, which has a very poor track record with fact-checkers.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, they were opposed to lockdown measures but did not promote misinformation regarding Covid-19 vaccines. However, when reporting on alleged election fraud in the 2020 election, they did not hesitate to report on allegations despite no evidence supporting them. In general, most content is fact-based but highly one-sided and biased in favor of the right.
Failed Fact Checks
- None by third-party fact-checkers.
Overall, we rate Liberty Nation Right Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that favor the right. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to one-sided reporting and the use of poor sources who have failed fact checks. (D. Van Zandt 11/23/2017) Updated (02/27/2023)
