It styles itself a newspaper, I'm prepared to believe them, I also don't really see why it's not? It carries news... I like it because it does analysis and it seems to this American reader that it does it better than the corresponding American weekly publication. What corresponding American weekly publicaton? I would like to get some other American opinion on that, what do they prefer in the American press? Do they read the Economist?

Which ones do our UK readers recommend? Are they usually available on the continent?? I;d say Independent independent.co.uk and the Guardian (guardian.co.uk) and its Sunday sister, the Observer (links from the Guardian site) There's always the Sun too (and strangely, its stable mate, theTimes.co.uk ) |

Vapidly liberal at most, and not even Liberal with a big L. Look at the way the former editor, Peter Preston, acted as a copper's nark and landed one of his own sources in jail. Alan Harrison |

The Guardian is about as hard left as credible reporting comes. So hard left it's virtually fantasy. For example ... Just look at some of the stuff they have said about renewable energy (search for it on their site)... utter bull**** if ever I've read it. Their view is one of never giving an inch to the right (or never giving an inch to anything American) which is something that ****es me off. Defining oneself in terms of left and right is simplistic and foolish, and that's what the Guardian does constantly to appease its readers. The BBC has better balance from my point of view. They will lean to the left, but they wont fall over. -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |

I hope you will find that many of us "underexposed" Americans may access the BBC, Le Monde, NY Times, etc. without going abroard. Although the experience of going abroad to do so is a much nicer experience. Everyone, not just yanks, should explore the press of other nations. http://newslink.org/ has a pretty good listing of online newspapers from around the world, although there are a number of broken links. If someone has found a better index, please post it. Gordon |

I likes the Sun, Sunday Sport and the the Star cos they tell us about
reel life here in the UK. You know about who is shagging who, who is the biggest moron in big bruther and wot footballer is shagging wot bimbo this week. Also I luvs the deep and perceptive anaysis of soaps where everybody is in crisis and can't cope with life and is denial that they have cogent thoughts about the theory of relativity but dare no speak about a love that has no name. Also I luvs to see the big tits. Thanks. |
