RealClearPolitics (RCP) is a political news and polling data aggregator based in Chicago. It was established in 2000 by John McIntyre, a former options trader, and Tom Bevan, who previously worked in advertising. The founders aim to provide readers with a range of viewpoints, promoting what they refer to as "ideological diversity." However, this has been challenged by Daily Kos, which has pointed out perceived conservative bias. Despite this, AllSides has rated RCP's bias as "Center."
