Is Nezavisne novine left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?

Crosswire lists Nezavisne novine as Center within Bosnia and Herzegovina'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.

Read Nezavisne novine beside another title from Bosnia and Herzegovina and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two dailies from Bosnia and Herzegovina 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 Nezavisne novine's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because Nezavisne novine is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning title from Bosnia and Herzegovina either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
