Main topics: Public security, economic policy, culture, migration crisis, international defense

Most balanced outlet: DR Nyheder, due to its broad coverage of diverse topics, although it presents an absolute centrist bias in the data provided.

The right didn't cover: The right did not cover topics of popular culture (festivals) or migration crises, leaving a void in the debate over freedom of expression and borders.
The left didn't cover: The left did not cover topics of fiscal policy (subsidies) or technical infrastructure, missing the opportunity to analyze the economic and state impact.

“The uniformity in coverage suggests an echo chamber where topics of ideological debate remain off the news radar.”
