Is RTHK left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
RTHK is listed as Center on Crosswire: as a public-service broadcaster its mandate is broad, balanced coverage rather than a party-political editorial line.
Read RTHK beside another title from Hong Kong and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Public-service broadcasters usually carry a wider spread of civic, regional and cultural stories than commercial rivals, and lead less often on conflict or celebrity — so the gap between RTHK's front page and a commercially funded one is often less about opinion than about what each considers newsworthy in the first place. Because RTHK is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Hong Kong title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
