Has the Overton window shifted to the right so much that The Atlantic is now considered liberal? It always seemed pretty centrist.

- WatchDog 3y agoThis media bias chart[0] seems to put them squarely in the left. Disclaimer, I'm not very familiar with either The Atlantic, nor who runs allsides.com and whatever biases they may have. https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-chart https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-chart
- vehemenz 3y agoIt's been a liberal publication for a long time. I think you might have it backwards though. If the Overton window shifts right, then The Atlantic would be considered more liberal, wouldn't it? If anything, some of the other journalistic institutions jumped the shark a bit from 2015-2020, which might make The Atlantic look more centrist than it really is, though it remains fundamentally liberal.
