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 information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Right Bias sources.
- Overall, we rate The American Tribune as Right Biased due to its consistently favorable coverage of conservative figures, use of loaded language, and lack of balanced perspectives. We also rate the site Mixed for factual reporting because, while it sometimes relies on legitimate sources, it frequently amplifies partisan claims without verification or critical analysis, which lowers its overall reliability.

Analysis / Bias
The American Tribune publishes politically charged news and commentary from a conservative viewpoint, often using emotionally loaded language and favorable framing of Republican figures while portraying Democrats negatively.
Articles such as WATCH: Jasmine Crockett Says Americans Need to Stop Worrying about Mass Fraud in Bizarre, Angry Rant, “I Will Fix It!”: Trump Remains Defiant, Shreds Jack Smith in Powerful Statement, and Trump Admin Launches War on “Rampant Abuse” in DEI Contracting Program frequently present partisan narratives without meaningful counterbalance. While some reporting references primary sources or mainstream outlets, the site also republishes claims from partisan figures without critical context or disclaimers, particularly when amplifying statements by Donald Trump or other conservative sources like the Gateway Pundit. This results in one-sided coverage that blends news reporting with opinion-driven framing.
Failed Fact Checks
- No direct failed fact checks by IFCN-approved organizations were found for The American Tribune. However, the site has a pattern of repeating disputed or misleading political claims without noting a lack of evidence or providing corrective context.
Overall, we rate The American Tribune as Right Biased due to its consistently favorable coverage of conservative figures, use of loaded language, and lack of balanced perspectives. We also rate the site Mixed for factual reporting because, while it sometimes relies on legitimate sources, it frequently amplifies partisan claims without verification or critical analysis, which lowers its overall reliability.
