WRAL (Associated Press wire)
U.S. center-left
WRAL is a Raleigh, North Carolina television station owned by the privately held, family-run Capitol Broadcasting Company; its website republishes national wire content from the Associated Press alongside original local reporting. Bias trackers place it at center to center-left, with high or very-high factual-reporting ratings across major rating services. Its recent coverage of the Trump second term includes fact-checks that have found administration claims exaggerated while also scrutinizing Democratic responses.
