Is China Daily Hong Kong left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

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