Any credible right-leaning news sources out there? (endlesstalk.org)

I have recently came into conclusion that the news sources I follow are almost all either left-leaning or not biased at all. However, I don’t really have many right-leaning sources that I follow. I would like to change this to broaden my spectrum of viewpoints.

However, I am looking for sources that are credible. I have tried looking at r/conservative on Reddit, however literally all the news sources that they use there show up as “mixed” or “low” under the factual reporting category on media bias check: example (and I’ve checked like 15).

So here comes the question: what credible right-leaning news sources are there that actually publish factual information? Right-center are also fine

the guardian, a respectable centre-left news organisation

I don't think The Guardian hasn't been centre for at least 5 years now. It used to be a respectable news origanisation, yes, but today the vast majority of their articles are opinions posts.

What do you think it is if not centrist? It's certainly not solidly left-wing and it's certainly not right-wing, nearly all of its reporting (excluding the insert magazines like the TV guide and food mag) is pretty firmly liberal capitalist centrism with some token left wing bits in there very occasionally.

As someone who reads the paper a few days a week, probably only a quarter of their output is opinion pieces, which I'd say is a pretty standard ratio.

It’s “British establishment left”. So slight left unless we’re talking about transgender people, then they align fully with Fox News.
