Apparently the Guardian is wonderful. I always think that the DM and the G are both full of biased shite.

I think it’s based on the number of times a paper has been found to have lied or had to pay damages. I believe the Mail has often been found to have lied and paid substantial damages. I do not believe the Guardian has had to or if they have done it’s nowhere near on the same scale as the Mail and The Sun.

@derxa I deliberately didn't post a Grauniad link to their story on this to avoid being accused of being a Grauniad fan/apologist because I am not one.

If you are trying to defend the shoddy record of the Mail by attacking the Grauniad that's pretty weak.

I didnt need anyone to tell me the daily mail is a lying shitrag.

And unbelievably thats not even the worst thing about it!

If you are trying to defend the shoddy record of the Mail by attacking the Grauniad that's pretty weak. I'm sure the DM publishes endless rubbish and lies but that article gave no stats at all. It's an advert for an app.

People should be more aware of news sites in general, and the app is based on IPSO rulings.

I wouldn't touch the app though as its a privacy nightmare.
