Watching or reading the news can be tricky these days. Learning the straight facts without knowing if it's being spun in a specific direction to fit a narrative is more difficult now than ever before. But how can you tell if your news source is biased?

The Babylon Bee, the world's most trusted outlet, is here with a list of clear signs to help you know:


  1. All the anchors have "I (heart) Trump" face tattoos: A telltale sign.

  2. The host panel chants "KILL! KILL! KILL!" every time a Republican is mentioned: It's a subtle sign, but if you pay attention, you'll notice it.

  3. A gentleman from the Chinese Communist Party is standing just off camera with a gun to shoot the anchor if they say something unapproved: Chairman Xi runs a tight ship.

  4. It's Fox News: These are dangerous, fascist MAGA extremists.

  5. It's any channel other than Fox News: These are America-hating, leftist, anti-Trump commies.

  6. Each ad break is accompanied by 10 minutes of bowing to a golden Trump statue: A fiery furnace awaits anyone who refuses to comply.

  7. All the commercials urge you to either buy gold or end-of-the-world food buckets: If you haven't put all your life savings into these commodities by now, you're toast.

  8. It's Keith Olbermann: Yikes.


If your news source checks any of the boxes listed above, it might be biased. What other red flags are there to tell if a media outlet is partisan? Sound off below in the comments.


NOT SATIRE: Tired of feeling gaslit by biased news? Freespoke's AI tools dig through the entire web - not just the sanitized, Big Tech - approved corners - to show you what everyone's saying, not just what one side wants you to believe.

Over a 30-day period, Freespoke's technology found that the web indexes 2.8x more left-leaning content than right-leaning. That imbalance means most AI systems end up parroting the same slant and calling it "neutral." Freespoke was built to fix that, giving both sides of the story equal airtime so you can decide what's true.

For example, when President Trump recently said, "I'm not allowed to run" for a third term on his recent trip to Asia, Freespoke's AI found perspectives differ: there was broad consensus that Trump acknowledged the Constitution makes it "pretty clear" he can't serve again, but left-leaning outlets emphasized his history of talking about a third term and framed it as another example of him testing limits, while independent and right-leaning sources pointed out it as "trolling" and a long-running joke he's made for years - nothing new, nothing serious. In other words, same quote, different realities.

Those are the kinds of insights ChatGPT and Google won't show you - the missing pieces of the truth that actually help you think for yourself.

Powered by its own independent web index (no Google hand-me-downs here), Freespoke's AI reveals the consensus, exposes the divides, and even pulls expert insights from podcasts, jumping you straight to the moment they address your question.

So if you're ready to stop being gently spoon-fed "approved" opinions and start seeing the whole picture, give Freespoke a try. Download the free app and save 35% on Freespoke Premium with code bee35.
