I haven't got that vibe from them. I see plenty of pieces that are negative for both sides of the aisle, which is usually a decent indicator that, if there is bias, it's as minimal as it gets in mainstream media.

I don't listen to their news on the radio very much, although I used to and liked it for their tone at least, and that you'd hear stories that you aren't likely to hear elsewhere. In the early 2000s they definitely leaned left.

I do listen to three of their podcasts, including their political one, and I'd say they are 100% left wing.

Not that that means anything. Vice news leans left too, but that doesn't mean they can't report the news accurately.
