It is my understanding that The Guardian is a highly regarded newspaper in the UK. according to Wikipedia: Awards Received The Guardian has been awarded the National Newspaper of the Year in 1999 and 2006 by the British Press Awards, as well as being co-winner of the World's Best-designed Newspaper as awarded by the Society for News Design (2006). The guardian.co.uk website won the Best Newspaper category three years running in 2005, 2006 and 2007 Webby Awards, beating (in 2005) the New York Times, the Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal and Variety.[103] It has been the winner for six years in a row of the British Press Awards for Best Electronic Daily Newspaper.[104] The site won an Eppy award from the US-based magazine Editor & Publisher in 2000 for the best-designed newspaper online service.[105] The website is known for its commentary on sporting events, particularly its over-by-over cricket commentary. In 2007 the newspaper was ranked first in a study on transparency which analysed 25 mainstream English-language media vehicles, and which was conducted by the International Center for Media and the Public Agenda of the University of Maryland.[106] It scored 3.8 out of a possible 4.0.
