An aside note: I have noticed that recently (starting about one year ago) there has been a meme of Breitbart not being a reliable source, while its opposite counterpart Huffington Post does not seem to have this reputation. I wonder if there is a better reason for that than just political disagreement, perhaps there are studies on the relative reliability of different sources (online and offline)? Thanks!

But their Wikipedia article for instance tells a tale of published falsehoods, conspiracy theories and the like. The political disagreement is an orthogonal factor, but does play a role, of course.
