Read this carefully

The columns count publications, by who tends to share their links. They do not say anything is biased. Only stories in politics, world and business are included, and only publications that carry those categories and have a score. Our list of publications is not a balanced sample of the press, so a missing side may only mean we carry few outlets that side reads.

Audience lean comes from Robertson, R. E., Jiang, S., Joseph, K., Friedland, L., Lazer, D., and Wilson, C. (2018), Auditing Partisan Audience Bias within Google Search, Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction 2(CSCW), article 148, used with the authors' permission. The score shows which party's registered voters, on Twitter, shared an outlet's links more. It is not a rating of the outlet's own slant, and it dates from 2018. See how we use it.
