Is The961 left-leaning, right-leaning or centrist?
Crosswire lists The961 as Center within Lebanon'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 The961 beside another title from Lebanon and the differences show up fastest in what leads the page. Digital-native outlets reorder their front pages continuously in response to reader behaviour, so The961 may look different an hour from now — reload it alongside a print-cycle title and you can see which stories have staying power and which are traffic spikes. Because The961 is listed near the centre, it works best as the fixed point in a comparison — put a left- and a right-leaning Lebanon title either side of it and the direction each one pulls becomes measurable rather than impressionistic.
