Oh god not this again.

The idea that the press is "liberal" is so manifesty false that it is 
not worth arguing with anyone who would argue otherwise.

Only in a country in which the right defines the word "liberal" to be 
synonymous with "questioning an extreme right-wing position in any way 
whatsoever", can the newspapers be considered "liberal".

The Guardian is liberal.  The Morning Star is extreme liberal/communist. 
  Anything to the right of those is either centrist (The Independent) or 
slightly right of center (New York Times) or further to the right.
