LEFT BIAS
These media sources are moderate to strongly biased toward liberal causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appealing to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports, and omit information that may damage liberal causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Left Bias sources.
- Overall, we rate Mary Geddry’s newsletter as Left Biased based on its consistently activist framing, emotionally charged language, and alignment with progressive political causes.

Analysis / Bias
Mary Geddry’s newsletter is an opinion-driven political analysis site that consistently advances progressive and anti-Trump narratives using highly emotive and rhetorical language. For example, in “Impulse Is Not a Foreign Policy”, Geddry characterizes Trump-era foreign and domestic policy as driven by rage, impulse, and authoritarianism, blending factual events with strong editorial interpretation.
Similar framing appears in “Gunboats, Grocery Aisles, and Government by the Worst”, which criticizes U.S. trade, food policy, and governance through a lens of economic injustice and institutional cruelty. Another example, “Secretary of War Crimes and the Ministry of Poisoned Air”, uses satire and charged metaphors to frame Republican officials and policies as authoritarian and destructive. While articles often reference real-world reporting and identifiable events, sourcing is selective, countervailing perspectives are largely absent, and conclusions are presented through a clearly ideological framework.
Failed Fact Checks
- None in the Last 5 years. The publication functions primarily as political commentary rather than straight news reporting.
Overall, we rate Mary Geddry’s newsletter as Left Biased based on its consistently activist framing, emotionally charged language, and alignment with progressive political causes. We also rate it Mostly Factual due to its grounding in real events and reporting, but with reduced reliability stemming from selective sourcing, strong opinionation, and limited presentation of opposing viewpoints.
