Right
Summarized from more than one independent rater, including AllSides and Ad Fontes Media. We do not rate outlets ourselves.
Founded in 1998 by Christopher Ruddy and now publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange following a 2025 listing, with Ruddy retaining control through the share structure. It grew rapidly as an alternative to Fox News after 2020.
It found a large audience that felt other conservative outlets had moved away from them, and its listing gives it capital few competitors have. Critics point to its coverage of the 2020 election, which led to defamation litigation and an on-air clarification, as the clearest test of its editorial standards to date.
