The Bangkok Post is an English-language daily newspaper based in Bangkok, founded in 1946. In our feed its attention goes mostly abroad: the United States comes first by a wide margin, followed by Southeast Asia, Iran and China. Politics, security and economy each take a substantial share, with society further behind. Its headlines are consistently skeptical of the United States and Donald Trump, while Thailand itself is reported neutrally.
Across the measured period the Bangkok Post's headlines are consistently skeptical of the United States and of Donald Trump, in tone critical of US actions and of the administration's style, though not uniformly hostile. In a few months, around late spring and midsummer, the treatment of the United States turns neutral with mixed signals. Thailand is covered neutrally and factually throughout, and Iran neutrally with mixed framing where it appears. The measurement works from the outlet's headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.
