Truth Social’s New AI Search Engine Heavily Favors Fox News in Results

Trump's social media platform introduces an AI-powered search function with apparent conservative media slant

Exclusive AI Search Feature Launches

Truth Social, the social media platform founded by Donald Trump, has rolled out its new artificial intelligence search tool called Truth Search AI. This feature, developed in partnership with AI startup Perplexity, currently operates on the web version with mobile app integration planned soon.

Conservative Media Dominance

Independent testing reveals the search tool exclusively references right-leaning news outlets, including:

  • Fox News
  • Fox Business
  • The Washington Times
  • The Federalist

Fox-affiliated sources accounted for the overwhelming majority of results despite the platform's stated commitment to free speech principles.

Mixed Results Despite Bias

While source selection demonstrates clear preferences, the AI's summary content occasionally presents less favorable perspectives on Trump-related queries. For example:

  • "Current evidence indicates Trump's tariffs have not improved economy"
  • Tariffs described as having "generally negative effect on growth"

Company Leadership Perspective

Truth Social CEO Devin Nunes framed the launch as strengthening conservative digital infrastructure:

  • Positioning platform as keystone of "Patriot Economy"
  • Describing current version as beta requiring refinement
  • Promising future enhancements based on user feedback

Independent Verification

Media outlets confirm observed bias patterns:

  • Epstein-related queries return favorable interpretations
  • Economic impact assessments remain factual despite source limitations

Perplexity executives defended the partnership as expanding access to "reliable, cited information" for engaged users.
