# News Media Factual Reporting and Political Bias

Dataset introduced in the paper ["Mapping the Media Landscape: Predicting Factual Reporting and Political Bias Through Web Interactions"](https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.17655) published in the CLEF 2024 main conference.

Similar to the [news media reliability dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sergioburdisso/news_media_reliability), this dataset consists of a collections of **4K new media domains names with political bias and factual reporting labels**.

Columns of the dataset:
- `source`: domain name
- `bias`: the political bias label. Values: "left", "left-center", "neutral", "right-center", "right".
- `factual_reporting`: the factual reporting label. Values: "low", "mixed", "high".

**Github repo** released along with the paper [here](https://github.com/idiap/Factual-Reporting-and-Political-Bias-Web-Interactions).


## Load Training Dataset

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset('sergioburdisso/news_media_bias_and_factuality')

print(dataset)
```
Output:
```python
DatasetDict({
    train: Dataset({
        features: ['source', 'bias', 'factual_reporting'],
        num_rows: 3920
    })
})
```
