The begging for cash section at the end of every article is annoying and smacks of desperation. The articles that you want to comment on quite often don't have that option and the ones that do are clo... See more

Is it just me, or has The Guardian completely lost touch with the people it claims to represent? The tone, the bias, the relentless spin… it feels more like a lecture than journalism these days.... See more

Best of four

Of the four daily online papers that I read, The Guardian has always come through as the most informative, and most centered.

The truth

Guardian is owned by the Scott Trust to ensure editorial independence, free from bias.

Fearless independent investigative journalism, speaking fact. Deservedly award winning. Globally revered and regarded by many repressed readers around the world as an essential news platform to discover the truth about what’s happening within their own country.

Well-written articles

I often find stories on the Guardian in a search on the internet when I don't easily find them elsewhere. Today was one of those times. The articles are always well-written and fairly thorough.

Deserved winner of awards for journalism

The guardian has won numerous awards for its journalism around the world for example in the PressGazette, NewsAwards and PressReader.
It is also the the paper which supports the needs of ORDINARY people in the face of the world's slide into the horrors of oligarchy.
On top of this it has excellent sports coverage.

A Journalism Disgrace!

As an independent, I call out lying publications on either side. I don't care about the UK version because I don't live there but if they want to constantly meddle in US politics, I would appreciate if they presented both sides. This is not journalism. It is nothing more than a schill for the woke leftism in the world. Please understand that I also call out the far right too. This publication is a disgrace!

The Guardian has proven itself to be…

The Guardian has proven itself to be just another disappointing legacy news source. I'm not a Trump supporter, but to have an advertisement proporting to expose the truth if you donate $5-15/month on top of whatever subscription service they offer is appalling. And then to see an article about how they received a "Trump bump" on CNN just enforces that as a news source, they operate with an extreme bias and can't be trusted to be objective. I'm old enough to remember a time when journalists were meant to report the news, not manufacture it and unfortunately, it seems those days are firmly of the past.

I bought my partner a new Fire tablet so that he could use our Guardian Editions subscription each morning, as he did previously with the old app. The Editions app does not work on a brand new Fire tablet. What a rip off! We have been Guardian readers for more than 50 years paper then app. I suspect there will be a consequence in terms of loss of subscription revenue.

I loved Nick he was so hot and he was actually to good for lulu I think lulu was a user and Connivings. Lulu led nick on a lot made him chase her I'd rather him got with the young attorney he took out for a drink then left her at the table to go bone lulu. With lulu the show didn't have a chance for a 4th season.
