Always try to consume a balanced news diet of The New Yorker and The New York Post.
The letter: https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/apple-news-warn...
Where it says: "Recently, there have been reports that Apple News has systematically promoted news articles from left-wing news outlets and suppressed news articles from more conservative publications. Indeed, multiple studies have found that in recent months Apple News has chosen not to feature a single article from an American conservative-leaning news source, while simultaneously promoting hundreds of articles from liberal publications."
