CNN / MSNBC are the Democrat version. There are some interesting polls on trust of media by political affiliation from 2012[0] and 2019[1] (these are multi-page sites, interesting stats to poke around).

Fox dominates that for conservatives, while liberals tend to have a wider range of organizations to go to.
