Analysis / Bias

The house.gov website covers congressional schedules, news, and live streaming of proceedings. This is a fact-based website that publishes official information often in real time. Put another way, the website publishes primary sources, which are considered the most credible. It is essential to state that not all primary sources tell the truth…POLITICIANS. Please understand that the content published on house.gov might not be true. In other words, they are reporting what the politicians say without embellishment, even if it is false.

Failed Fact Checks

  • Government officials lie all the time, but that is not the responsibility of house.gov. They simply present content. It is up to you to vet what you hear from politicians.

Overall, we rate House.gov Least Biased based on not providing editorial content. We also rate them Very High for factual reporting due to simply directly publishing what government officials say. (M. Huitsing 9/15/2017) Updated (11/25/2022)
