This is a handy chart that seems to capture the ideological position of   
a range of common sources. Some of those in the strongest 'left'   
category could be considered far-left.

Often the 'far-' label doesn't just refer to ideological position, but   
degree of detachment from reality, for which you additionally need an   
accuracy accessment. AdFontesMedia run a different chart which   
represents some of this here:   
<https://adfontesmedia.com/interactive-media-bias-chart/> -- if you run   
down the left-leaning arc you'll see e.g. Vox remains just inside the   
'fact reporting' boundary, and MSNBC and Daily Beast are left-skewed and   
of unreliable quality. There are ones further down that arc, but not   
many I've heard of.
