Is Kazinform left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Kazinform is listed as Center on Crosswire: news agencies supply reporting to outlets across the whole spectrum, which rewards a deliberately neutral news style.
Read Kazinform beside another title from Kazakhstan and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Agency copy is written to be resold to outlets across the spectrum, so Kazinform is a useful baseline: compare its plain account of an event with how partisan titles in Kazakhstan headline the same wire story, and the framing each adds becomes visible by subtraction. Because Kazinform is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Kazakhstan title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
