Your evaluation site (

Still, I think a source very well could be leftist or rightist, and still be factually accurate. Or they might be peddling fake news.
Take a look at

Factual Reporting: MIXED
Notes: Breitbart News Network is a politically conservative American news and opinion website founded in 2007 by conservative commentator and entrepreneur Andrew Breitbart (1969—2012). It also has a daily radio program, Breitbart News Daily. The content ranges from extreme right wing bias to conspiracy to racism (Then you see President Barack Hussein Obama waving the line-cutters forward. He’s on their side. In fact, isn’t he a line-cutter too? How did this fatherless black guy pay for Harvard?). Breitbart has been accused of publishing fake news for the purpose of a political agenda.
Update: As of 8/17/16 Stephen Bannon, the executive chairman of Breitbart News LLC, will become Donald Trumps campaign’s chief executive. This move ensures that Breitbart will become the official media outlet and propaganda wing for Donald Trump’s Presidential bid.
Update: After the election 2016 Stephen Bannon was named Adviser to President-Elect Donald Trump.
