This is very interesting and helpful.
There’s a chart that establishes which news sources are leftish, rightish or neutral....
It looks accurate.

I’ve already done the research to know which sources are least biased and most fact based, so every news outlet I read stories from is both. I do keep a couple of biased sources (in each direction) on my newsfeed to get the range of opinions, though.

AP, Reuters, and PBS Newshour are the three I trust for the least amount of (if at all) biased journalism and reporting.

I predominately stick with least biased and high fact based rated sources, but after I do read at least 1 article from sources that are more left and right biased to better understand others.

"In haughty Squidward voice" I'm neutral- I listen to public radio. Actually I do like BBC and NPR. They always seemed to at least be attempting to stay neutral.

All I want are facts. Not the reporters opinion about the facts. I can't stand Talking Heads.

I do feel there are a couple of NPR interviewers who are a bit aggressive and interrupt the interviewee. One woman on Morning Edition in particular. Yes you want to ask hard questions but shut up and let the person speak ffs.
I don't like talking heads either.
