Why do you not differentiate the interests, and hence credibility, of a perpetual trust and corporate-owned news organizations?

- olivermarks 8y agoI read the UK Guardian most days and sometimes comment on the few stories they briefly allow reader input on. Based on those experiences I would say the Guardian has a very strong 'keep the status quo' neo liberal angle politically and hosts large numbers of highly judgmental and biased opinion and analysis pieces. Nothing wrong with that, they have a particular political and agenda driven focuses for a substantial audience demographic.
- nailer 8y agoThe Guardian wrote a false headline stating man with a gun his car was unarmed: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2012/feb/23/pcc-guardian-mark-duggan-headline https://www.theguardian.com/media/2012/feb/23/pcc-guardian-m... Additionally there has been a culture of rivalry and personal dislike between the Graun (and now Buzzfeed news) staff towards Wikileaks from staff who previously worked with them, namely Janine Gibson and James Ball - it's worth following them and reading their tweets. It would be very naive to think this doesn't affect their (now very negative) Wikileaks & Assange coverage.
