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