"The Guardian is more left leaning than most of the MSM, Stanron, but it is far from left wing. Except of course by current standards which have moved so much to the left anything slightly left of center is jumped upon as Communist!"

MSM = mainstream media?

There's something not quite right (or should I say correct ? ) with what follows. Either everything left of center will seem more centrist or current standards have moved to the right. I'm going to guess that, if MSM means mainstream media, you mean the latter of the two. I'd have to disagree.

To me mainstream media seems left of center. Especially the BBC. Not as far left as the more vociferous UK lefty posters on this forum and maybe that's the point. They are left of me and right of you. Perspective?
