Vulture media bias and reliability
The bias data this site ingests places Vulture 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 11 published stories of ours.
The short answers
Is Vulture biased?
The bias data this site ingests places Vulture as leaning left. It does not name the organisation that made that assessment, so we publish it as an unattributed rating and nothing more. An outlet rating describes a broad pattern in its output, not every article it publishes.
Is Vulture left or right?
The bias data this site ingests places Vulture as leaning left. It does not name the organisation that made that assessment, so we publish it as an unattributed rating and nothing more. In the three-way grouping used on story pages, that puts it under Left.
Is Vulture reliable?
The factuality data this site ingests describes Vulture as high factuality. It reaches us without a named assessor, so it is an unattributed rating rather than our verdict. It does not guarantee that every report is correct.

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 Vulture 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 Vulture.

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.

11 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 Vulture ran the story anyway.
Across the 11 stories of ours where at least three of the reports we listed carried a time, another outlet was always ahead of Vulture: its report arrived a median of 23 hours after the earliest one we logged.
Measured 21 September 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 21 September 2026. Ratings pulled 6 September 2026.
Other outlets rated the same way
Publishers carrying the same published leaning as Vulture, also publishing from United States, ordered by how often we have seen them on a story. Sharing a rating is not the same as being alike.
Think this page is wrong?
The leanings above are published by AllSides, Ad Fontes Media and Media Bias/Fact Check, and we republish them rather than make them. If you think one is misapplied, the strongest place to say so is with the organisation that made it, and every verdict here links to their page.
What we are responsible for is everything else: the ownership chain, where Vulture publishes from, which of our stories we have listed it on, and whether we have the right publisher at all. Tell us what is wrong and an editor reads it.
Report something wrong on this page
Anything we correct is written up in the public corrections log. We do not publish reader votes as a rating, because an unattributed rating is the thing this site exists to argue against.
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.
