About The Guardian

Major Daily Leans leftEstablished source

The Guardian is owned by Guardian Media Group, which is solely owned by The Scott Trust Limited. The Scott Trust was established in 1936 and reorganized as a limited company in 2008 to ensure the financial and editorial independence of The Guardian, reinvesting all profits into its journalism rather than distributing them to shareholders.

Media Bias/Fact Check rates The Guardian as Left-Center biased with high factual reporting, noting story selection moderately favors the left and sometimes uses emotionally loaded headlines. AllSides, in November 2024, moved its rating to Left, citing strong left word choice bias, slant, sensationalism, and content that actively demonizes American conservatives/Republicans. The outlet has faced accusations of biased criticism regarding Israeli government policy. The Guardian maintains a readers' editor and publishes corrections and clarifications, demonstrating a commitment to accountability.
