    They try to be objective, which is more than most.

    Personally I think some opinion always comes through and generally I prefer sources that admit that and share their opinion on what they’re reporting on. As long as it’s honestly given and not manufactured.

    It’s a bit like film critics. Over time you get to know what they like and what they don’t and that let’s you extract more information. A rom-com impressing a horror fan gives me more information that it appealing to a fan of the genre.

    Similarly, when Owen Jones started criticizing Labour I knew that Labour were leaving a bunch of their supporters behind without needing to be told that explicitly.
