Counted as Center, from the raters' rating above. How we count coverage
Editorial note
British public broadcaster. Rated relative to the US political axis — UK political center sits left of the US center. MBFC notes a slight rightward drift in recent editorial framing; AllSides puts the long-window average at Center but close to Lean Left (-0.94).
