Survey: New York Post’s Bias Between Center and Lean Right; AllSides Keeps Lean Right Rating

After analyzing the results of our November 2020 Blind Bias Survey, in which 2,285 people across the political spectrum blindly rated the New York Post’s political news content, we found people on the left, center, and right on average rated The New York Post’s bias as between Center and Lean Right (but a bit closer to Center). These results triggered an Editorial Review, in which the AllSides team (which also contains people across the political spectrum) opted to keep New York Post’s AllSides Media Bias Rating™ as Lean Right.

On average, people with a Left bias rated New York Post as Lean Right; people with a Lean Left or Center bias rated NY Post as between Center and Lean Right. People on the right rated New York Post as a firm Center.

The majority of respondents who have a Center or Lean Right bias rated New York Post as Center; a plurality of respondents who have a Left, Lean Left, and Right bias rated New York Post as Center.

Because the blind bias survey results differed from our current rating of New York Post as Lean Right, the AllSides team conducted an Editorial Review< of the outlet on Jan. 14, 2021. AllSides opted to keep the New York Post’s rating as Lean Right.
