RIGHT BIAS
These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Right Bias sources.

Analysis / Bias
The American Cause republishes conservative news and opinion stories from other sources as well as original writing from Pat Buchanan. Articles often focused on a perceived culture war, Big-Tech censorship of conservatives, and America first policies. Articles and headlines contain loaded emotional wording such as this China Is ‘Laughing’ As US Culture War Erodes Combat Readiness, Says Former Defense Secretary. This story comes from Questionable Fox News.
Editorially, all stories favor a conservative perspective, such as this My Cancel-Culture Nightmare Is Over.
