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

Granma is generally regarded as left-leaning in its editorial orientation, according to widely cited media-bias assessments of Cuba's press. In Cuba, 14ymedio is listed as Right-leaning — so you can open Granma beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

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