Is Thought Catalog biased?
Thought Catalog is held by the ratings provider we draw on, and no rater has placed it on the political spectrum. We have seen it on 1 published story of ours.
Who says so
We have not asked about Thought Catalog yet. Ratings are pulled on their own schedule and this section fills in when they are.
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.
Mixed 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 Thought Catalog.

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. Thought Catalog has not been placed on the spectrum, so there is no side to count against and we publish no figure here.
On the one story of ours where at least three of the reports we listed carried a time, another outlet was always ahead of Thought Catalog: its report arrived a median of 39 minutes after the earliest one we logged.
Measured 4 August 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 4 August 2026.
Stories we have seen it on
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.
