  It's more "all sides within the constraints of the American overton window" than it is all sides.

    It's pretty telling how narrow their definition of "all sides" is when Huffington Post and The New Yorker make up the furthest left of their spectrum. This in a world where the World Socialist Web Site (WSWS.org) and It's Going Down News (@IGD_News) are but a click away.

      I was more thinking of the lack of international diversity on international stories.

      Are you saying they lean right, or just need more extreme examples? I don't see Breitbart on there, either, FWIW. Maybe they're applying a "not too far left or right" filter or a "popularity" filter in order to keep from having so many takes on a given story that it's overwhelming?
