Bias

From dKosopedia

Media, pundits and organizations tend to have a poltical grounding, or bias. This entry attempts to place these groups on a scale to help identify the leanings and potential political bias they may have. The scale ranges from far left to far right measured by ticks of up to 5 ticks off-of-center in either direction. So for example, a person or organization can be described as L1 indicating a slight left-leaning bias or L5 indicating the most leftist position. Similarly, R1 indicates a right-leaning bias, while a R5 the farthest right position. A value of LR would indicate a truly neutral rating. Tics are used as an attempt to remove any bias in the grading system traditionally used in a number or letter scale (e.g. getting an 'A' or a '10' may inadvertently look preferable).
