LEFT-CENTER BIAS
These media sources have a slight to moderate progressive/liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes) to favor progressive/liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information, but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.
- Overall, we rate UNITED24 Media as Left-Center biased based on a pro-Ukrainian editorial bias. We also rate them as mostly factual rather than high due to a lack of transparency.

History
UNITED24 Media is an English-language digital media platform created to inform international audiences about Ukraine’s struggle against Russian aggression and its broader contributions to global affairs. It focuses on topics including war coverage, culture, business, and technology from a Ukraine-centric lens. The platform launched amid the ongoing conflict and appears to be part of a broader strategy to bolster international understanding and support for Ukraine.

Funded by / Ownership
The outlet does not disclose any ownership, leadership team, or funding sources on its website. There are no donation options, and basic transparency elements such as staff bios or organizational affiliations are absent. However, its brand and editorial tone align closely with Ukraine’s public diplomacy efforts. The name “United24” also matches a Ukrainian government fundraising campaign. The domain registration also lists only a generic email and no organization name.
Analysis / Bias
UNITED24 Media presents information that is largely factual and well-sourced but is overtly sympathetic to the Ukrainian government. Its editorial policy explicitly states that “balanced representation does not mean we give voice to internationally recognized enemies of human rights”—a clear stance that rules out providing a platform for Russian state narratives.
Many articles, such as “Germany’s Drone Killer in Action”, are military-oriented reports that cite official sources like the Ukrainian Air Force and German defense manufacturers. Another long-form article, “How Russia Fabricates Reality”, explores Russian disinformation strategies using credible documentation and reporting from NGOs, the OSCE, and the UN.
Opinion is clearly separated from news, but the overall tone of the platform consistently affirms Ukraine’s position while portraying Russian actions as criminal or deceitful. Even more balanced updates, like Zelenskyy’s outreach to Trump, include only the Ukrainian government’s framing of events.
Despite this strong slant, the platform references high-integrity sources and does not appear to fabricate or misreport information. However, the lack of organizational transparency, combined with overt pro-government bias, places it in the realm of state-aligned advocacy journalism.
