And we avoid the trap that befalls much US media: the tendency, born of a desire to please all sides, to engage in false equivalence in the name of neutrality. We always strive to be fair. But sometimes that means calling out the lies of powerful people and institutions – and making clear how misinformation and demagoguery can damage democracy…As a global news organization with a robust US reporting staff, we’re able to provide a fresh, outsider perspective – one so often missing in the American media bubble.

I’d personally rather that both Farage and The Guardian occupy themselves with trying to influence British elections, rather than American.

There was this rather heated dispute we had back in 1776 over whether-or-not London should be determining American government.
