Your point being?

Funny comment, I get the implication :)

I think the political stance of a newspaper is usually reflected in its official editorials (I'm not talking about letters from readers) and election endorsements. Also in its columnists - if there isn't a diversity of opinion. Of course news stories should be reported straight-up, that's what professional journalism requires. By those measures, I judge the Independent to be somewhere left of center. But that's OK, every newspaper, just like every person, has a political or world view leaning, one way of the other.

Having said that, what's interesting to me is I've noticed a core of prolific online readers whose posts are decidedly opposite of the Indy's editorial tendencies (I won't name names). On the face of it, that seems to be a healthy thing.
