Bipartisan Report is a pro-liberal, clickbait news outlet, known for creating heavily skewed headlines to appeal to the left.[1] It claims to be "The Internet’s Largest newspaper,"[2] an unsubstantiated claim in conflict with the website's Alexa ranking.[3] It was founded in Seattle, Washington by Justin Brotman, son of Jeff Brotman, who operates the website from his home. Content is written from a heavily biased perspective, and it is said to have posted inaccuracies, pseudoscience and conspiracy theories.[4] Some have classified it as a fake news website,[5] a claim which the website's founder denies. The website reportedly has 15 paid writers, who publish their work under pen names for safety and privacy reasons.[6]
