@PandorasMailbox

Private Eye loves to take a swipe or two at the Graun.
Good! I love the Eye.

And it's only fair, seeing as how The Graun takes a swipe at The Daily Mail at every opportunity.

But, really, I wouldn't worry about The Graun long-term. Their focus is on the US - I guess the strategy is to challenge The New York Times as the premier broadsheet.

@WhatyoutalkingaboutWillis

How many of you have subscribed to The Times recently? I have and I know my daughter has.
Yup, read the guardian all my life, but finally made the change....

The Graun's fall makes me very sad but (for the most part) these days it is to real journalism what homeopathy is to real medicine: an alternative

Love Private Eye

I was just watching “This Time With Alan Partridge”, and they take a hefty swipe at the Guardian for being entirely staffed with hypocrites and posh men with three letter names like Dan, Ben, Tom or Tim pretending to be ordinary because they’ve got teenaged sons and a messy hallway 🤣

MrsOvertonsWindow · 19/07/2021 21:05

I also binned the Guardian for the Times. They have some great investigative journalism. I take great pleasure in the Guardian's moaning pop up page - "You've read 80 articles this year..."
Yes I have idiots - and I used to pay for them until you forgot the basic principles of a free press and started silencing women and manipulating news for your own staff's agendas.

PandorasMailbox · 19/07/2021 21:02

The Guardian's practically their own personal comic, er I mean newspaper, but that's still not enough for the trans mob.

Someone really needs to write a sitcom about this......

@PandorasMailbox Search "guardian transphobic" for a chortle.

Love The Times. Have subscribed on the back of Janice Turner’s excellent writing.

LizzieSiddal · 19/07/2021 20:43

Brillant. Can they do the Guardian next week?Grin

@PandorasMailbox

I know several people who've binned their Guardian subs to join the Times.
I'm one of those people. Can't stand the Guardian anymore because it reads like a school paper. A couple of exceptions (Marina Hyde eg).

The Times seems more objective and thoughtful.

SpringCrocus · 19/07/2021 20:33

Funny that 🤔🙄😂

SpringCrocus · 19/07/2021 20:32

Oh dear. Notice they are not demanding LOJ resign from his job. Or threatening him with rape/baseball bats, etc

PandorasMailbox · 19/07/2021 20:26

@MondayYogurt

Just a reminder that TRAs are cancelling their Guardian subs (imaginary Guardian subs??) because it's transphobic too...
That's hilarious Grin

I, too, dumped the Guardian and now subscribe to the Times, Telegraph and Spectator online.
My ultra left wing 18 year old self would be appalled at this, but needs must!

Yep, another loyal guardian reader of 25+ years here who scrapped it a couple of years back for a Times sub. I want journalism, not wall to wall op ed slanted to the international market, swivel eyed self flagellation and stonking hypocrisy. I skimmed the graun a couple of times a week, but after the dreadful bullying out of Suzanne Moore apparently went unaddressed by senior management, I cut down on even that. I get my balance from the bbc, and from other, international papers.

What’s that awful noise I can hear, by the way? Is it…gnashing of teeth? Grin and why haven’t we had an accusation that this was paid for by the Heritage Foundation yet? Standards are really slipping.

MouseontheLouse · 19/07/2021 18:19

Sorry. Got so excited I forgot to put that bit. Either way, at least they've printed it - paid for or not

Oh it's great. I was just a bit confused.

HereticFanjo · 19/07/2021 17:43

The Guardian are heavily courting the US market and their nonsense probably plays well there with the college classes. Meanwhile we are no longer subscribers.

MiladyBerserko · 19/07/2021 17:31

Also have a Times subscription, having been a Guardian reader since university. I refuse to even click it now.
