The short answers
Is Daily Monitor biased?
The bias data this site ingests places Daily Monitor as leaning left. It does not name the organisation that made that assessment, so we publish it as an unattributed rating and nothing more. An outlet rating describes a broad pattern in its output, not every article it publishes.
Is Daily Monitor left or right?
The bias data this site ingests places Daily Monitor as leaning left. It does not name the organisation that made that assessment, so we publish it as an unattributed rating and nothing more. In the three-way grouping used on story pages, that puts it under Left.
Is Daily Monitor reliable?
The factuality data this site ingests describes Daily Monitor as high factuality. It reaches us without a named assessor, so it is an unattributed rating rather than our verdict. It does not guarantee that every report is correct.
What Daily Monitor has been covering
Our account of each story, written from every outlet that ran it, with Daily Monitor’s own report linked underneath.

Who says so
The lean above is carried in the coverage data this site ingests, which names no rater for it. We publish it because it is what the rest of the site groups Daily Monitor on, and we will not present it as an assessment by anyone in particular until we hold one.
How reliably it reports fact
A rating of the newsroom in general, by others, and a different thing from the Trust score we publish on each story, which judges one piece of reporting.
High factuality
The rating above reaches us without a named assessor, and is published as that rather than as anyone’s verdict.

We have not seen Daily Monitor cover a story that outlets rated left were largely absent from.
Across the 2 stories of ours where at least three of the reports we listed carried a time, another outlet was always ahead of Daily Monitor: its report arrived a median of 34 hours after the earliest one we logged.
Measured 7 August 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 7 August 2026.
Every rating on this page is a named third party’s published work, republished with its author and, where one exists, a link to it. Our own coverage record is the section we measure ourselves. Neither is a judgement of any individual report: those are scored story by story, and the reasoning is on our methodology page.
