According to the media bias check website[1], the original reporter (The Daily Beast) has a high Factual score, meaning its literal statements are likely true, and a left-leaning bias, meaning the topics it covers will be of more interest to the leftist politics.
(This post is mostly because I personally don't think business insider is particularly factual, and so did some research to validate its claims.)

- barkingcat 8y agoWho checks the purported bias checkers?
- max76 8y agoChina Daily is in their "Least biased" category despite the fact that it is an English language publication owned by the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China and published by People's Republic of China. I think I have a different definition of bias as Media facts, which seems to be entirely focused on Left/Right biases.
