For those of you who are interested in the Thai media, this is my interpretation of what each news outlet stands for or against. It’s based from my observation entirely and if you have anything to argue, feel free to tweet me and I shall correct it for you.

• The Nation: officially backed by the Thai Democrat party.

• Bangkok Post: very right wing. Hence why they write in favor of the Democrat party, most of the time.

• TAN Network: 100% yellow-shirt even though they try to hide this fact. The head editor/owner is Sarocha Pornudomsak, who’s Sondhi’s right hand girl. It’s actually part of ASTV network.

As you can see here there’s no pro-Pheu Thai Party or red-shirt news outlet in English at all. But fortunately, most of the independent reporters such as Bangkok Pundit or the Zen Journalist usually report somewhat left-leaning news, but their stance is quite neutral. This is why, form what I can tell, expats don’t really get the most balanced view about Thai politics in general.
