Il Fatto Quotidiano

Il Fatto Quotidiano is generally regarded as left-leaning in its editorial orientation, according to widely cited media-bias assessments of Italy's press. In Italy, Corriere della Sera and La Repubblica are listed as Centrist, while Il Giornale is listed as Right-leaning — so you can open Il Fatto Quotidiano beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.

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