Is The New Times left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists The New Times as Center within Rwanda'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 The New Times beside another title from Rwanda and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Two Rwanda 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 The New Times's editorial choices, and they are easiest to see side by side. Because The New Times is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Rwanda title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
