The Guardian is a fake news website. Of course they won't pull it.

• scholia 10y ago
  The Guardian has trained and experienced reporters, a code of conduct to keep them honest, subeditors who are also fact checkers, and an ombudsman (Readers' editor) with independent power to cross check and correct mistakes. It's also owned by a charitable trust, and is under no obligation to publish the lies preferred by its non-existent fat-cat proprietor. Calling it a fake new site says more about you than it says about the Guardian.

    None of that changes anything about the fact that they regularly publish half-truths or outright lies, though. As is the case in this situation. There's a big gap between theory and practice.

      A small gap, which is hardly unusual given that humans are not perfect. It's still not a fake news site. There are plenty of those, and telling lies about the Guardian doesn't help anyone.
