It is commonly referred to as "The Torygraph" for it's historically predominantly right-leaning editorials, as for science I could not comment...

Here's the result of a 2005 MORI survey, to give you a hint about political leanings, if that was what you were after.

 

And here's the Goddard Space Flight Center press release I suspect is the basis of the article, If journalistic integrity is what you are asking about.

I know that Rense.com has frequent links to the Telegraph, so that speaks volumes...

well the Telegragh is Blue by UK standards but would probably be considered Democrat if it were in the US

I think they know about our oil already, so we'll just have to play nice. regular_smile%20.gif

 

My thought was more on the fact that the gop like to associate themselves with the colour red, while the dems prefer blue. They clearly must have misunderstood something.

OK I think I made a mistake here. My intention was to talk about that subject "Dark whatever" and not UK Telegraph itself. Obviously we're quickly drifting off to some forbidden discussion.

Not a Brit, but from what I've heard, horrific.

well of all the papers the only ones i ever look at are The Telegragh, The Scotsman and the FT

 

its really nothing like as right wing as hippy Guardian reading Islingonians would have you believe

But it arguably is the the most conservative of the major English papers (I know little about Scottish papers, save for the Herald and Scotsman)
