Is The Tribune-Democrat biased?
The bias data this site ingests places The Tribune-Democrat as leaning left. 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 2 published stories 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 The Tribune-Democrat 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 The Tribune-Democrat.

2 of those reports were paywalled or blocked to us. Our reading of this outlet is built on the 0 we could open, not on everything it published.
On 1 of those stories, outlets rated left were largely absent from the coverage and The Tribune-Democrat ran the story anyway.
Across the 2 stories of ours where at least three of the reports we listed carried a time, another outlet was always ahead of The Tribune-Democrat: its report arrived a median of 2 days after the earliest one we logged.
Measured 5 August 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 5 August 2026.

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.
