Political leaning and stance

Across the measured period, the outlet is broadly supportive of Israel, though some months are neutral and it reports internal criticism and scandals without hostility. Benjamin Netanyahu is treated as an authoritative and mostly sympathetic figure, with a critical stretch in one month. Donald Trump and the United States are covered favourably or neutrally, with officials quoted without distancing. It is skeptical and adversarial toward Iran, critical of Lebanon as enabling Hezbollah, and critical of Hamas, while treating the Palestinian Authority neutrally. 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.
