Is Diario CoLatino left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

Diario CoLatino is generally regarded as left-leaning in its editorial orientation, according to widely cited media-bias assessments of El Salvador's press. In El Salvador, La Prensa Gráfica and El Faro are listed as Centrist, while El Salvador and Diario El Salvador are listed as Right-leaning — so you can open Diario CoLatino beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

Read Diario CoLatino beside another title from El Salvador and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two El Salvador 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 Diario CoLatino's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because Diario CoLatino is listed as left-leaning, the sharpest contrast is usually a right-leaning title from El Salvador on the same morning: the facts rarely differ, but which consequence is treated as the story often does.
