Analysis / Bias
The EurAsian Times provides news and analysis on global affairs, often with a focus on defense and international relations, notably regarding India’s strategic interests. Its editorial style tends to present information with sensational headlines like this Donald TRUMPS! Iran’s “Worst Nightmare” Is Back In Power! Why Should Tehran Be Concerned?
In “U.S.-India Relations Under Donald Trump: Indians Hail Trump’s Triumph But ‘China Test’ Awaits Both Allies,” the EurAsian Times explores the potential impact of Donald Trump’s presidency on U.S.-India relations, highlighting both positive expectations and challenges related to China. Authored by retired Air Marshal Anil Khosla, the article uses straightforward language but lacks hyperlinks or external references to support specific claims, such as those regarding trade and immigration impacts. This absence of direct sourcing makes the information feel more narrative-driven than strictly factual.
Another article, “India’s ‘Under-Rated’ Military Dependence On Ukraine Makes Modi-Zelenskyy Meet Possible; Gas Turbine JV On Cards,” explores India’s military ties with Ukraine and the potential for a joint venture in gas turbine production. The article references Bloomberg as the source for information on Ukraine’s state-owned Zorya-Mashproekt discussing joint manufacturing with Indian companies, but it lacks a hyperlink or direct citation. This omission makes the reporting more narrative-driven, as readers cannot easily verify the details independently.
The EurAsian Times relies on a mix of direct statements, original reporting, and references to official comments. However, sourcing practices are inconsistent; some articles reference specific sources or reports, while others lack direct citations or hyperlinks, which may impact factual reliability.
There is also evidence of failed fact checks and right-leaning bias in favor of President Trump and PM Modi.
Failed Fact Checks
- Russian President Vladimir Putin suffered a heart attack Oct. 22, 2023. – False
- A video purportedly showing a camera on an unidentified flying object went viral online. – Misleading
Overall, we rate the EurAsian Times as Right-Center biased based on its editorial positions that favor right-leaning perspectives. Due to the lack of disclosed ownership information, inconsistencies in sourcing, and failed fact checks, we rate it as Mixed for factual reporting, suggesting that readers may benefit from consulting additional sources for verification.
