These sources have minimal bias and use very few loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appeals to emotion or stereotypes). The reporting is factual and usually sourced. These are the most credible media sources. See all Least Biased Sources.
- Overall, IOL receives a “Least Biased” rating as its coverage can vary from supporting to critiquing the same subjects in different articles, showing no consistent political bias. However, we rate it “Mixed” for factual reporting due to poor sourcing practices, including a lack of external references and a few failed fact checks.
