What we have seen ourselves

Counted across the stories this site has published, which is the only denominator a reader can check: every one of them has a page, and every page lists the reports it was written from.

1 of those reports was paywalled or blocked to us. Our reading of this outlet is built on the 0 we could open, not on everything it published.

A blindspot is measured against one side of the spectrum. iNews is rated centre, so there is no side for it to be counted against and we publish no figure here.

On the one story of ours where at least three of the reports we listed carried a time, another outlet was always ahead of iNews: its report arrived a median of 14 hours after the earliest one we logged.

Measured 6 August 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 6 August 2026. Ratings pulled 6 August 2026.

Stories we have seen it on

Other outlets rated the same way

Publishers carrying the same published leaning as iNews, also publishing from United Kingdom, ordered by how often we have seen them on a story. Sharing a rating is not the same as being alike.

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.
