Is 20 Minutos left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

Crosswire lists 20 Minutos as Center within Spain's media spectrum — the grouping it uses both for genuinely centrist titles and for outlets the major media-bias assessments do not place consistently on one side. In Spain, elDiario.es and Público are listed as Left-leaning, while ABC and La Razón are listed as Right-leaning — so you can open 20 Minutos beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

Read 20 Minutos beside another title from Spain and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two Spain dailies covering the same day will usually agree on the facts and differ on the ordering: which story is worth the top of the page, how the headline characterises it, and which follow-ups get space. Those are 20 Minutos's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because 20 Minutos is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Spain title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
