Is Chek news biased?
The bias data this site ingests places Chek news 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 seen it on 1 published story of ours.
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 Chek news 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.
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 Chek news.

What we have seen ourselves
Counted across the stories this site has published, which is the only denominator a reader can check: every one of them has a page, and every page lists the reports it was written from.

1 of those reports was paywalled or blocked to us. Our reading of this outlet is built on the 0 we could open, not on everything it published.
A blindspot is measured against one side of the spectrum. Chek news is rated centre, so there is no side for it to be counted against and we publish no figure here.

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.
