Apple News’s bias against right-leaning media outlets has become more and more evident — and MRC studies suggest that this may be by design, prompting MRC President David Bozell to call for a federal investigation.

EXCLUSIVE: The Big Four News Apps are controlling the political narrative to help Democrats, and it's working.

President of the Media Research Center David Bozell joined Larry O’Connor on WMAL’s O’Connor & Co. Wednesday morning to deliver a blistering briefing on what he calls a total lack of "rooting for the home team" across the Big Four News Apps, American elitist media establishment, and late-night comedy circuit.

After an MRC report went viral exposing Apple News for zero right-leaning top stories in January, Apple News modestly increased right-leaning outlets to just 2% in the second half of February, with 75% still from left-leaning sources. Critics say this minor shift after FTC scrutiny is “damage control,” not true balance, and claim Apple News still suppresses conservative views.

For eight days after the Federal Trade Commission challenged Apple News on its bias, neither Apple nor the rest of the Big Four News Apps linked to a single story on the federal scrutiny despite its massive implications and widespread media attention.

A study found that from Feb. 1–14, 2026, Apple News overwhelmingly featured immigration stories from left-leaning or centrist outlets, excluding right-leaning sources, and offered twice as much coverage on immigration as the Winter Olympics. The findings suggest a lack of balance on controversial topics, raising concerns about media bias in major news apps.

Two landmark trials against Meta and YouTube could fundamentally reshape social media for Americans, especially children. As Dan Schneider, Vice President for Free Speech at the Media Research Center told Fox News’ Fox & Friends First on Wednesday, “these cases could fundamentally reshape how everyone interacts with social media.”

The Big Four News Apps just revealed a new low of depravity, ignoring a significant win that could encourage victims across the nation to seek justice. Despite a young woman winning a multi-million dollar judgment against her psychologist and her surgeon in a potential landmark transgender surgery case, the digital gatekeepers shamelessly buried her story. 

In the latest episode of Apple TV+'s Shrinking ("D-Day"), which ironically aired during National Marriage Week, a heartwarming scene between Harrison Ford's Paul and teen Alice (Lukita Maxwell) turns sour when she declares she wants kids but no husband because marriage is a "sexist construct."

A Media Research Center study revealed Apple News promoted 1,379 left-leaning articles and only one right-leaning piece over 100 days, raising concerns of bias. Following FTC scrutiny and a stock dip, Apple featured a Fox News story. Critics argue this limits conservative voices and public perception, while Apple insists users can customize news feeds.

Media Research Center president David Bozell joined The Scott Jennings Show today to reveal new findings from MRC Free Speech America’s Digital News Tracker showing Apple News’ continued tilt toward left-leaning outlets and complete exclusion of right-leaning sources.

In January 2026, Apple News featured 620 top stories but did not include any from right-leaning outlets, instead favoring left-leaning and centrist sources like The Washington Post and Reuters. Critics argue this editorial bias undermines balanced news coverage, especially on topics related to President Trump’s policies.

Media bias isn’t just on TVs or in newspapers anymore. Now, it’s woven into digital devices, and it’s worse than you think.

The Big Four News Apps just completely ignored the March for Life in a blackout so intense that even the pro-life marchers couldn’t find significant related coverage.
