ERTnews

ERT is Greece's state-owned public broadcaster, funded through a levy collected with electricity bills and by state resources. Its ERTnews service provides around-the-clock television and online news in Greek, covering national politics, the economy, and international affairs. Re-established in 2015 after a two-year closure, ERT remains one of the country's principal broadcast news sources.

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

ERTnews 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 Greece, EfSyn is listed as Left-leaning, while Kathimerini is listed as Right-leaning — so you can open ERTnews beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

Read ERTnews beside another title from Greece 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 ERTnews's front page and a commercially funded one is often less about opinion than about what each considers newsworthy in the first place. Because ERTnews is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Greece title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
