Is Ars Technica biased?

The bias data this site ingests places Ars Technica in the centre. It does not name the organisation that made that assessment, so we publish it as an unattributed rating and nothing more. We have not yet published a story this outlet appeared on.

CentreVery high factuality

Who says so

The lean above is carried in the coverage data this site ingests, which names no rater for it. We publish it because it is what the rest of the site groups Ars Technica on, and we will not present it as an assessment by anyone in particular until we hold one.

How reliably it reports fact

A rating of the newsroom in general, by others, and a different thing from the Trust score we publish on each story, which judges one piece of reporting.

Very high factuality

The rating above reaches us without a named assessor, and is published as that rather than as anyone’s verdict.

Who owns it

We hold no ownership record for Ars Technica.

What we have seen ourselves

We have not published a story Ars Technica appeared on. It has a page here because it turned up in the coverage of a story we were reading, which happens well before we have written anything it is part of. Measured 4 August 2026.

Stories we have seen it on

None yet. This fills in as Ars Technica appears on stories we publish, and each entry links both to the outlet’s own report and to ours.

Every rating on this page is a named third party’s published work, republished with its author and, where one exists, a link to it. Our own coverage record is the section we measure ourselves. Neither is a judgement of any individual report: those are scored story by story, and the reasoning is on our methodology page.
