Analysis / Bias

In review, the New Castle News covers crime, sports, entertainment, and politics for the Lawrence country region. Local news is reported through reporters with minimal bias, such as this Woman reports indecent exposure incident. The Associated Press and the CHNI news service cover national and international news.

Editorially, the New Castle News endorsed Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in 2016. A review of Op-Eds reveals a reasonable balance with more favoring the left, such as this OUR VIEW: Police board right idea, but needs right people and ERIC POOLE: On Labor Day, unions are the reason for the season. The news is generally reported factually and with a slight left-leaning bias through endorsements and op-eds.
