They aren't propped uo by some dead billionaire's trust fund.
I'm being a deliberate pedantic arse, but I'm not kidding it really was a dead millionaire, millionaire by ye olde standards which yes would probably be billionaire by today's standards because that's how old the guardian is as an organisation. I found it pretty fascinating going through this aspect of the guardian's finances and I bet if someone smart ever entered into a debate with one of their journalists they wouldn't appreciate at all this being brought up publicly. Too bad so many right wingers are pussies when it comes to dealing with them.
They keep trying to pass themselves off as these trendy champagne socialists delivering groundbreaking journalism when in reality they're absolute bitches. They keep dipping into the fund in question whenever they're in trouble and it's one of the reasons why not so long ago they had to do job cuts because it was clearly eating too much into their profits they didn't want it going into the fund as well give how costly woke hiring practices are.
Oh I'm with you on most of it. I was just pointing out that the newspapers who aren't trust fund babies are essentially foreign agents. The concept of the "press" is an inherently invalid one.
Now let's be fair to the failing New York Times. They aren't propped uo by some dead billionaire's trust fund.
They're propped up by a still alive, cartel adjacent foreign billionaire.
