The Telegraph is a British daily newspaper based in London, founded in 1855. Its headlines are led by the United Kingdom and the United States, followed by Iran, Russia, Ukraine, China and Israel. Politics and security carry most of the mix, with diplomacy and military topics prominent. Its stance is critical toward Donald Trump, Keir Starmer and Vladimir Putin, the last two often in sharp terms, and neutral to critical toward the United Kingdom as a country.
The Telegraph's headlines are critical of Donald Trump and the United States in nearly every month measured, with mocking or diminishing framing of threats and controversies. Keir Starmer is treated critically throughout, in consistently hostile terms in two spring months, and Vladimir Putin and Russia are covered in critical and adversarial terms, at times hostile and alarmist. Jeffrey Epstein is treated in consistently hostile terms, China and Xi Jinping skeptically, Iran critically, and Andy Burnham skeptically. The United Kingdom itself reads as mixed and largely neutral. This is measured from headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.
Based on headlines from February 2026 to August 2026.
