One organisation has published a rating for this outlet. Where they disagree, the disagreement is the useful part and it is left standing.

How reliably it reports fact

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.

We have not seen SANA cover a story that outlets rated left were largely absent from.

We cannot say how early SANA files. That needs a story on which at least three of the reports we listed carried a publication time, and we hold none for this outlet.

Measured 4 August 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 4 August 2026. Ratings pulled 4 August 2026.

Stories we have seen it on

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.
