Recurring allegations of political bias and insufficient editorial neutrality
Canal Sur has faced recurring criticism that its news coverage reflected the interests of the Andalusian government in power. Under the long PSOE-led period, critics alleged that the broadcaster favored the regional administration and was critical of the national PP government. After the 2019 change of government, opposing critics alleged favorable treatment of the PP-led administration, politically influenced appointments and the withholding of information unfavorable to the governing parties.
