El Colombiano

El Colombiano is generally regarded as right-leaning in its editorial orientation, according to widely cited media-bias assessments of Colombia's press. In Colombia, El Espectador is listed as Left-leaning, while El Tiempo and El Heraldo are listed as Centrist — so you can open El Colombiano beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

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