Khaleej Times · April 2026
April 2026 editorial profile for Khaleej Times. Below: how this outlet framed the actors and regions it covered most in April 2026. Tap any tile to jump to the detailed card.
United Arab Emirates25 titles+1Constructive“consistently favourable and supportive”
Patterns
- foregrounds economic achievements and positive developments
- amplifies official statements without distancing
- uses celebratory language ('flags fly off shelves', 'new generation')
- frames government actions as protective and responsive
Caveats
The outlet treats the UAE as a unified, authoritative entity; even when reporting incidents (fires, conflicts), the framing emphasises resilience and official reassurance, not criticism.
Representative headlines
- →Dubai property sales hit Dh138.7b in Q1 as investors drive high-value deals
- →UAE flags fly off shelves after Sheikh Mohammed’s call as residents rush to buy
- →UAE President, Dubai Ruler say nation overcame crisis through unity of its society
- →Dubai Ruler calls on all residents to raise UAE flag above homes as symbol of unity

United States25 titles0Reportorial“neutral reporting with occasional critical framing”
Patterns
- Quotes Trump's statements without evaluative adjectives
- Reports US actions and policies factually
- Includes international criticism of US policies
- Mixes US political news with tech and entertainment
Caveats
The outlet reports Trump's statements neutrally but also includes headlines critical of US actions (e.g., 'Trump threats raise fears of escalation', 'Filipino lawmakers slam Trump’s Hormuz strait blockade plan'). The entity is the US as a country, not just the administration; coverage is mixed between factual reporting of US actions and inclusion of external criticism, resulting in a neutral overall stance.
TRUMP16 titles0Reportorial“neutral with critical distance”
Patterns
- reports Trump's statements and actions without evaluative adjectives
- uses neutral verbs like 'says', 'agrees', 'denies'
- includes headlines critical of Trump from third parties (Filipino lawmakers, religious outcry)
- occasional framing of Trump's actions as threats or raising fears
Caveats
Coverage is largely factual reporting of Trump's statements and actions, but includes some headlines that implicitly question his credibility (e.g., 'faces questions', 'religious outcry') and third-party criticism. No consistent positive or negative editorial voice toward Trump; stance is neutral overall.
