JANUARY 5th 2021 - CONTINUED

Q1: Who owns The Guardian?

Q2: What is the political bias of The Guardian? 

Q3: Look at the two quotations below:

2022: With no billionaire owner, we are committed to journalism defined by truth, rigour and integrity.

2023: Because we're not owned by a billionaire, we depend on our reader's generosity to continue producing honest, rigorous news that millions can access through 2023 and beyond.

To what extent do these two quotations demonstrate that the Guardian agree with Curran and Seaton about the relationship between the the ownership of a newspaper and its content?

Q4: Look at the quotation below:

The Independent - 2004: "The Conservatives do not have a God-given right to expect the loyalty of the Daily Mail. The Daily Mail supports the middle class of this country, and if the middle class of this country is better supported by another political party, and feels that way, then I am sure that Paul [Dacre, the editor-in-chief] would make the corresponding decision," he says.

Now look again at the January 5th 2021 cover of the Daily Mail. To what extent does this quotation support the statement made by the 4th Viscount Rothermere?
