Quick Summary

Reporters from The Daily Mail found an abandoned storage unit in Rosarito Beach, Mexico, belonging to Thomas Markle, and allegedly discovered magazines depicting child pornography alongside family items.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
