The Honolulu Weekly was on the left, and they are no Honolulu Weekly.  The Socialist Worker is leftist.  CB is kinda radical centrist to libertarian overall.  They have a reasonable gamut of reporters, columnists, and letters/editorials, but maybe in the current political climate they *seem* leftist.  Heck, I remember when Hillary Clinton would have been a liberal Republican, Bob Dole was an arch conservative, and Ronald Reagan was Considered a looney right wing nut (remember the commercials from when he took on Pres. Ford?)
