Is BNT left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

BNT is listed as Center on Crosswire: as a public-service broadcaster its mandate is broad, balanced coverage rather than a party-political editorial line. In Bulgaria, Standart is listed as Right-leaning — so you can open BNT beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

Read BNT beside another title from Bulgaria and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Public-service broadcasters usually carry a wider spread of civic, regional and cultural stories than commercial rivals, and lead less often on conflict or celebrity — so the gap between BNT's front page and a commercially funded one is often less about opinion than about what each considers newsworthy in the first place. Because BNT is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Bulgaria title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
