ANSA

ANSA is listed as Center on Crosswire: news agencies supply reporting to outlets across the whole spectrum, which rewards a deliberately neutral news style. In Italy, Il Fatto Quotidiano is listed as Left-leaning, while Il Giornale is listed as Right-leaning — so you can open ANSA beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

Read ANSA beside another title from Italy and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Agency copy is written to be resold to outlets across the spectrum, so ANSA is a useful baseline: compare its plain account of an event with how partisan titles in Italy headline the same wire story, and the framing each adds becomes visible by subtraction. Because ANSA is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Italy title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
