El Mundo is a Spanish daily newspaper based in Madrid, founded in 1989 and published in Spanish. Its headlines centre on the United States and on Spain and southern Europe, followed by Iran, Venezuela, Israel and China. Politics dominates, with security next and diplomacy the largest single sector. Its stance reads as neutral toward Spain, consistently critical of Donald Trump, and hostile toward several named figures and governments.
Across the measured period, the outlet is consistently critical of Donald Trump and of the United States under his administration, in a tone that is skeptical, often ironic, and hostile in some stretches; a few stretches are neutral. Spain is covered neutrally, with mixed domestic political reporting and critical distance toward the prime minister, Pedro Sánchez. It is hostile toward Venezuela, the Hungarian leader Viktor Orbán, the former Spanish prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero and Jeffrey Epstein, and favourable toward France, treating Emmanuel Macron as an authority. Stance is measured from headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.
Based on headlines from January 2026 to August 2026.
