Is Jornal de Notícias left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists Jornal de Notícias as Center within Portugal's 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 Portugal, Público is listed as Left-leaning, while Observador and Correio da Manhã are listed as Right-leaning — so you can open Jornal de Notícias beside a title of a different orientation and compare the same day's front pages directly.
Read Jornal de Notícias beside another title from Portugal and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two Portugal 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 Jornal de Notícias's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because Jornal de Notícias is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Portugal title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
