Anadolu Agency Assigned Center Rating in March 2026 Independent Review

In March 2026 an AllSides team member independently reviewed Anadolu Agency for media bias and assessed an initial rating of Center.

US politics coverage from Anadolu Agency was often short and without much spin, slant, or charged language. The outlet also often included sentiments and direct quotes from opposing perspectives and clearly attributed its sources.

For instance, in an article titled Pro-Trump lawyers draft executive order to reshape US elections: Report, the publication clearly mentioned ABC News and Washington Post as contributors to its report, and wrote:

"Pro-Trump figures including Michael Flynn, Mike Lindell and Patrick Byrne have reportedly been involved in advising on the draft, which sources say could be incorporated into a formal executive order.

Democrats have strongly criticized the plan as unconstitutional, with Rep. Ted Lieu posting on the US social media company X’s platform that 'there’s no national emergency exception to Art 1, Sec 4 of the Constitution. States regulate elections unless Congress passes law.'”

In another article titled US House passes GOP bill imposing nationwide voter ID and citizenship requirements, the outlet included direct quotes from several prominent Democrats and Republicans.
