    are you talking about tabloids in the same sentence as broad sheets?

    what is the daily mail and its kin, never can remember which was left and which was right out of it and the mirror?

    re: the guardian - polly toynbee and the great moonbat make my teeth grate.

    re: the independant - there positioning themselves as the environmental paper is great marketing, but shoddy news.

    AFAIK (I am absolutely not admitting to reading them! ) the daily mail is (rabidly) right wing and the mirror left (probably with a good ol' soupcon of xenophobia and a dash of protectionism).
