Thin on the left so far

None of the 6 outlets with a published leaning rating that ran this story are rated left.

This story is still being watched, so it is a count and not yet a finding. Coverage keeps arriving for hours after an event, and a side that has published nothing this morning may publish by tonight. If it is still true when we stop checking, we will say so plainly.

A Venezuelan delegation headed by interim President Delcy Rodriguez arrived in New York early on Monday and took part in the United Nations General Assembly. Two sources close to the preparations said the team will discuss energy, debt and mining issues with counterparts in the United States. The same sources said the talks are expected to lead to agreements.

Rodriguez’s visit marks her first trip to the United States since assuming the interim presidency in January under U.S. oversight after the capture of former President Nicolas Maduro. The top U.S. diplomat for Venezuela, John Barrett, received her in New York, according to Venezuela’s state television.

The delegation is scheduled to meet President Donald Trump on Tuesday, a detail confirmed by the full report from a centre‑rated outlet.

Questions about this coverage

How did the left and right cover Venezuelan delegation led by interim President Delcy Rodriguez meets US…?
Of the 6 outlets on this story carrying a published leaning rating, 0% are rated left, 33% are rated centre, 67% are rated right. Those percentages are shares of the rated outlets, not of every outlet that ran it, which was 12. The sections above set out what each side emphasised, in its own terms.
Is Venezuelan delegation led by interim President Delcy Rodriguez meets US… left or right?
Too few of the outlets on this story carry a published leaning rating to say. 6 of them do, and this site does not characterise a field under 12: at that size one newsroom filing moves the share by ten points. The percentages above are the count as it stands.
Is the coverage of Venezuelan delegation led by interim President Delcy Rodriguez meets US… biased?
Venezuelan delegation led by interim President Delcy Rodriguez meets US officials at UNGA is one event reported by 12 outlets, and this page does not rate the story as biased or unbiased. What it publishes is the spread: which outlets ran it, where named rating organisations place each of them on the spectrum, and what each side chose to lead with. A leaning rating describes an outlet's record over time, not this article, and the two should not be run together.
Which side is not reporting Venezuelan delegation led by interim President Delcy Rodriguez meets US…?
When we first saw this story, outlets rated left had barely covered it. Coverage accretes for hours after an event, so that is where to look rather than a verdict — the split above is the current count, and it is the one to read.
Which outlets covered Venezuelan delegation led by interim President Delcy Rodriguez meets US…?
12 that we know of, every one of them listed further up this page with a link to its own report and to what we hold on the publisher. Nothing here is a summary of somebody else's summary: the outlets are named so the original reporting can be read.
