I couldn't open their X because it's a technological abomination, but their Bluesky doesn't paint the image of a blatantly left-wing and super partisan channel that willingly ignores reporting on the public sector.

Amongst the top 10 things I saw them complaining about a state government, public regulators not doing their job well… it's not dramatic.

Maybe it's my European lens indeed, but it seems like a generic centrist media outlet, with maybe an anti-elites edge, which I'd expect from the Fourth Estate.

"Amongst the top 10 things I saw them complaining about a state government, public regulators not doing their job well… it's not dramatic."

Not doing their job of sufficiently constraining the private sector, which is just part of the same narrative of advocating for more state control.
