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 appeals 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 Smartech Daily as left-center biased based on editorial perspectives that slightly align with the left. We also rate them as Mostly Factual rather than High despite a clean fact record due to not clearly labeling which stories are promotional.

Funded by / Ownership

Analysis / Bias
Smartech Daily publishes news and information related to the SmartTech industry. Articles and headlines are minimally biased in word choices, such as The Modern Back and Osaki Unleash the Many Benefits of Massage Chairs. Although not labeled promotional, it primarily emphasizes the product’s benefits and lacks critical balance.
Editorially, they do not produce op-eds; however, they do report on political issues related to the industry, like Breakthroughs in Renewable Solutions. In reviewing dozens, a slight majority of politically related pieces lean slightly left in favoring a liberal perspective. In general, they are fact-based, but the content sometimes blurs the lines by not indicating which stories are promotional.
