I agree but 'avoiding conflict' is in many ways a much better bias than 'creating narrative'. So, FT supports Liberal Democrat narratives by virtue of their existence, but they definition are not bandwagon anything, they don't have to be. It's dry and boring, which has it's merits.

Those merits, in the context of diverse perspective, are not debatable. Sans that perspective? It's just as bad as any singular perspective. People end up partially informed, and that has clear impact on society. Now, I was not going to mention political parties. That was not germane to my argument. Since you opened the door: FT, specifically supports neoliberal economics, which has had a sustained, and negative impact on labor. And that is a clear bandwagon. Thus, my comment on diverse perspective. Dry and boring, frankly, is ignoring the state of the nation, and world, and that's a general disservice to a majority who inhabit it. NOBODY in media today is above the fray. Nobody.
