No offense to the wonderful British people, but a lot of your press is trash.
The Sun ? Trash.
The Daily Mail. Largely non-sense.
The Telegraph ? Official newspaper of the Tory Party. Used to employ Boris Johnson. He was lavishly paid to publish non-sense about the EU.
The Independent ? Now owned by Saudi Arabia and a Russian mobster.
The Times ? Owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News of the World. The CEO is Rebekka Brooks, former editor of News of the World. She is an actual criminal.
The Economist ? The current chairman Paul Deighton, a friend of David Cameron. He is a Tory Lawmaker (House of Lords) that was in charge of Covid PPE contracts. According to the New York Times, Deighton gave huge contracts to companies he owned.
The only two UK papers that I actually admire are The Financial Times and The Guardian.
I’m sure there are wonderful local newspapers in Wales, Scotland, and major cities, but overall the situation looks quiet grim.
Why would you assume local papers in England are awful and the ones in Wales and Scotland are better?
There’s a great deal of romanticism about Scotland and Wales, but they’re culturally virtually identical to England. The only major thematic difference you’re likely to see from local papers from those three home nations is if you’re reading a Scottish nationalist one.
