NBC News is owned by NBCUniversal, a Comcast Corporation subsidiary, though a spinoff announced in June 2026 is expected to make NBCUniversal an independent public company within about a year. Multiple media-bias trackers—AllSides, Media Bias/Fact Check, and Ad Fontes Media—consistently rate it as leaning left of center while scoring high on factual reliability. During the Trump administration's second term, its coverage has leaned broadly critical, including active fact-checking of presidential statements and sustained reporting on administration controversies.
