    Left or right doesn’t really enter into it from a moderating standpoint, but yeah, tabloid articles tend to lean into sensationalism over facts.

    Not as bad as AMERICAN tabloids which would be flat out removed:

    But man, things like the Sun and the Daily Mirror do walk a thin line.

      I’m following the list you gave, so I’m trying my best here. It’s the exact same rating as the Guardian.

      The only difference is left/right.

        Oh, I know, which is why I didn’t remove it.

        I’m just saying that the British tabloid press definitely has a reputation, and because of that, you will get complaints.

        They aren’t as bad as the US tabloids, but still. If you find a good story on a tabloid site, you might want to consider finding it through a different source.

        I have the same problem here in Oregon. KPTV is and has been an excellent news source, but they’re also a Fox affiliate, so I’m always like “Yeah, better see if I can find that from somewhere else…” Same problem with Sinclair stations.
