    The guardian is far from flawless, but it’s one of the best news sources that we have available in the Anglosphere by an increasing margin—yes I’m including the BBC in that given everything that followed Mr Cameron’s changes to the charter in 2015.

      Agreed. I think its the top tier news outlet which has relevance, neutrality. And arent about paywalls. Are there any other news sources on the same level?

      BBC wont back Theroux doc, fuck them genocide enablers.

      I have the Guardian and Telegraph, I am let down constantly by all the “benefit sponge” headlines and paragraphs. So much bigger fish to fry.

        The Telegraph has been Tory fan fiction since about the same time as the BBC changes. Loads of scandals of them taking money from shady places to print favourable news for the questionable people in the world and turn the other way when the Tories do something shitty.

        They even beat the all time biggest liar, the Daily fucking Mail in the annual making shit up awards recently (IPSO factuality violations where they are forced to issue corrections)

        It’s been pure propaganda for a good while now

          Agreed, its a shame because they have great material in the midst of that noise. Their Ukraine coverage is unparralleled.

    Sonia Sodha is still a contributor to The Guardian and is a massive TERF. The Guardian is one of the better news outlets in the UK, but so long as they give her a platform, fuck them.

      Because The Guardian is using the article written by The Guardian about what good people The Guardian are to raise money for The Guardian. :P

        Yes, yes, we get it. Everyone and everything is always bad all the time and nothing can be just a good thing. You’re addicted to outrage.

          Nah, it’s more that the answer to ‘why is <some company> doing this?’ is virtually always ‘because money’. People forget that sometimes.
