I just subscribed to Santiago Times Online in order to beef up my knowledge of current events in Chile. So far, the paper seems quite balanced and thorough to me though I don't have anything to compare it to (as I don't yet read Spanish).
When reading articles from most major US papers I tend to take them with a grain of salt. Does anyone have good insight as to the true freedom of the press in Chile? Is the Santiago Times relatively unbiased? For the most part I am reading business and political stories. I would hate to discover later that the Santiago Times is skewed like the New York Times (for example) and things are not what I came to believe. (For me, the New York Times demonstrates a liberal leaning bias).
