Is Philippine Daily Inquirer left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists Philippine Daily Inquirer as Center within the Philippines' media spectrum — the grouping it uses both for genuinely centrist titles and for outlets the major media-bias assessments do not place consistently on one side. In the Philippines, The Manila Times is listed as Right-leaning — so you can open Philippine Daily Inquirer beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.
Read Philippine Daily Inquirer beside another title from the Philippines and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two the Philippines 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 Philippine Daily Inquirer's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because Philippine Daily Inquirer is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning the Philippines title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
