Lindsey Anderson, left wing film director of "If" only read the UK right wing newspaper The Telegraph because "it's easier to see the lies" compared to papers his peers read.
- dmix 8y agoWhat does that have to do with what the OP said? That is quite the opposite of neutrality. And the fact she self-identifies as 'left-wing' says everything you need to know.

- dmix 8y ago> so that they would get a more accurate model of the world ...Assuming that is the goal instead of seeking out counter-narratives to fulfill confirmation bias and fuelling the outrage culture that has exploded in recent years (and which online newspapers have learned to feed into they way 24/7 news shows have been doing for years). The fact she summarized it as lies says a lot.
