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 using appeal 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.
Factual Reporting: HIGH
World Press Freedom Rank: USA 45/18o
Notes: Founded in 2006, The Next Web (TNW) is a technology news website that only covers political issues if it relates to tech.
In review, The Next Web rarely uses loaded words in their headlines and article. They also source all of their information properly. Politically, they tend to favor the left as they report somewhat negatively on the policies of Donald Trump and the GOP.
Failed Fact Checks
