My own eyes disagree. I read a lot of news. I read left wing news like the guardian, I read news that claims to be neutral but isn't like the NYT or BBC, I read right wing news like the Telegraph and Breitbart. I can't honestly say any are more reputable than the others - all of them tend to publish things that I fact check personally and find to be false.
But oddly enough, Google's mobile recommendations for me are utterly dominated by the Guardian. They push Guardian stories on me multiple times per day. Know which site never appears? Breitbart. It's clearly blacklisted.
I don't find them to vary in quality or "hateyness", at least for the British editions. The Guardian hates white men, Breitbart pushes a lot of stories about illegal immigration and variants (e.g. asylum seekers lying about their age and origin). They both have their pet hates and slanted views.
But Google only thinks I should be reading the article that pushes globalism, the EU, unlimited migration, Clinton and social justice politics.
Unbiased, hah. To believe that you'd have to be blind.
