Is Aravot left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists Aravot as Center within Armenia'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.
Read Aravot beside another title from Armenia and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two dailies from Armenia 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 Aravot's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because Aravot is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning title from Armenia either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
