Both sides run critical on Bannon — but the left runs 0.50 harsher.
Anything over 0.5 means one side is covering Bannon favorably while the other is hostile. Under 0.2, the two sides are shading the same story.
Left-leaning outlets framed Steve Bannon as a controversial figure linked to dissatisfaction with government officials and the political climate. They emphasized his connections to influential figures and criticized his role in shaping negative narratives about the Department of Homeland Security, suggesting that his influence is detrimental to effective governance.
Right-leaning outlets discussed Steve Bannon primarily in the context of his legal challenges, particularly regarding contempt of Congress. They expressed skepticism about his future political ambitions and framed his legal issues as part of a broader narrative about the challenges faced by conservative figures in the current political landscape.

We don’t judge whether anything said on air is true. Each show’s editorial lean is assigned from published third-party media-bias ratings — before we look at any of its coverage — and the two accounts above are each written from that side’s own airtime, neither in view of the other.
