The Telegraph - UK
The Daily Telegraph has an initial bias rating of lean right. Our AllSides Bias Rating™ is based predominantly off of independent research. Britannica refers to the newspaper as one that takes a conservative, middle-class approach to comprehensive news coverage, while The Guardian asserts itself as a left-leaning newspaper alongside the right-leaning Telegraph. The newspaper’s traditional right-wing stances and influence over conservative activists have resulted in the newspaper being referred to by some as the Torygraph. Even when conservative support was slumping in the opinion polls as Labour ascended during the 1990s, the newspaper remained loyal to the right-wing. Additional research is needed to determine whether The Daily Telegraph should remain listed as lean right, or if it should be switched to a far right bias.

Twenty-four Israeli soldiers were killed during intense fighting in Gaza on Monday, marking the Israel Defense Forces’s bloodiest day since the war began.
Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, an Israeli military spokesman, told reporters on Tuesday that 21 troops were killed in an explosion after Hamas terrorists fired rocket-propelled grenades at a tank.
He said a second explosion occurred at the same time in two buildings where forces had planted explosives in order to destroy them. The buildings collapsed onto nearby troops.
“We are still studying and investigating the details of the event and the reasons for the explosion,” Rear Admiral Hagari said.
