Rather subjective notion of 'reality'

The Guardian isn't perfect by any means, but to equate it with the Daily Mail seems strange. Whether it's their support for Hitler and Mussolini in the thirties (no, the Guardian didn't support Stalin) or their more recent fetish for denying that human actions are affecting the climate, they are a bit out there when it comes to peddling propaganda as opposed to factual reporting ... personally I don't mind rationalwiki's characterisation of both the seedy little rag (Mail) and Guardian. Mediabiasfactcheck also seem to place it further right than they have the Guardian as being left.
