RIGHT BIAS
These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story se******n and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Right Bias sources.
Overall, we rate The Federalist a borderline Questionable and far Right Biased based on story se******n and editorial positions that always favor the right. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to the promotion p***********e and three failed fact checks.

According to the website, The Federalist is a wholly independent division of FDRLST Media. The website is funded through online advertising as well as paid subscriptions to newsletters.
Analysis / Bias
The Federalist is a news and opinion website that reports with a right wing bias that typically favors the right and denigrates the left. There is frequent use of loaded emotional language such as this: The New York Times’ Hit Piece On Mike Pence Is Anti-Christian Bigotry, Plain And Simple. In general, The Federalist sources all of their information to credible mainstream outlets, however they sometimes use sources that we have rated mixed for factual reporting such as the Daily Caller.
According to an article from the left leaning Daily Beast, The Federalist was openly critical on Donald Trump before he won the e******n, but has since become a strong supporter of his Presidency and agenda. Further, In November 2017, The Federalist came under criticism from both conservatives and liberals for publishing an opinion piece by Ouachita Baptist University philosopher Tully Borland defending Roy Moore’s dating of teenagers while he was in his 30s and arguing that such behavior was “not without some merit if one wants to raise a large family.”
When it comes to reporting on scientific issues The Federalist often does not align with the consensus of experts in the field. For example, in this article the author claims that “I am a skeptic when it comes to c*****e c****e. To be clear, I don’t doubt that the c*****e c****es — obviously it does. I don’t doubt that human activity has an effect on this change. What that effect is, and to what extent it influences the entire system, I don’t know. As a scientific concept, I have no opinion on c*****e c****e.” The author does seem to have an opinion on C*****e c****e when he states “So, simply put, I am a c*****e c****e skeptic because the people advocating it do not act as if it were a verified scientific conclusion.” Although the author freely admits he is not an expert and cannot generate an opinion on the scientific concept; he does not need to have an opinion because there is strong scientific consensus on the impact of human influenced c*****e c****e.
The Federalist has also promoted p***********e claiming that there is a link between A******ns and Breast Cancer. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists there is “no causal relationship between induced a******n and a subsequent increase in breast cancer risk.”
A factual search reveals that The Federalist has made a few verified false claims.
Obama twice described Americans as “lazy” during a town hall meeting in Laos. – MOSTLY FALSE
“Longstanding whistleblower rules (were changed) just before submittal of the f**e whistleblower report.” – FALSE
“As we have learned, the Intel Inspector General (IG) changed the rule after the complaint was known in order to allow hearsay complaints, but the IG dishonestly backdated the rule change so that damage could be done to President Trump.” – PANTS on FIRE (cites false Federalist report that was never corrected)
Overall, we rate The Federalist a borderline Questionable and far Right Biased based on story se******n and editorial positions that always favor the right. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to the promotion p***********e and three failed fact checks. (8/8/2016) Updated (D. Van Zandt 03/30/2020)

The protests the night before were violent, today’s protestors were peaceful. The lie is from the Right.
Trump demands journalists correct stories on the use of tear gas. According to the CDC, it was tear gas.

President Trump’s ree******n campaign sent a message out to news organizations Tuesday night, demanding a correction to articles that described security forces’ use of tear gas to disperse demonstrators outside the White House on Monday, to allow Trump to cross the street to pose for photos at a church.
The U.S. Park Police had earlier released a statement defending that effort, saying that their use of chemical agents against the crowd came in response to violence from protesters, and that it involved “pepper balls” and “smoke canisters.” The statement went on to assert that “no tear gas was used” in the Lafayette Square incident.
“We now know through the U.S. Park Police that neither they, nor any of their law enforcement partners, used tear gas to quell rising violence,” Tim Murtaugh, the Trump 2020 campaign’s communications director said in a statement Tuesday night. “Every news organization which reported the tear gas lie should immediately correct or retract its erroneous reporting,”
The t***h boils down to an exercise in semantics.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: “R**t control agents (sometimes referred to as “tear gas”) are chemical compounds that temporarily make people unable to function by causing irritation to the eyes, mouth, throat, lungs, and skin.”
And, according to the CDC, “several different compounds” fall under this definition, and are employed by security forces, including military and police, in r**t control situations.

Among others, they include chloroacetophenone (CN), more commonly referred to as “mace,” or pepper sprays — in other words, the compound that was deployed in Lafayette Square — and chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile (CS), “one of the most commonly used tear gases in the world,” according to an article in the British Medical Journal.
Barr personally ordered removal of protesters near White House, leading to use of force against largely peaceful crowd
These compounds are all typically referred to as “tear gas” because their most prominent effect is to bring on tears.
R**t control agents are designed to cause irritation within seconds of exposure, making the exposed want to flee the scene. And indeed, toxicologists advise that getting away from the gas is the best and first thing to do to mediate the impact.
The most common symptoms of exposure, according to the CDC, can include excessive tearing and burning of the eyes, a runny nose, a burning mouth, chest tightness, coughing, skin burns, nausea and vomiting.
