CBS New York
U.S. center-left
CBS New York (WCBS-TV, Channel 2) is the flagship CBS owned-and-operated station in New York City, run through the CBS News and Stations division of Paramount Skydance Corporation. Third-party media bias analysts consistently rate it as slightly left of center in its political coverage. Its local reporting focuses on the New York metropolitan area, and its coverage of the Trump administration generally reflects concerns raised in that heavily Democratic region, though its corporate parent has taken notable steps since mid-2025 to accommodate the administration at the national network level.
