    Where do I start, considering the last few weeks barrage form the Fail and Torygraph - oh and the decades before that - your contention - and you unreadable graph - are nonsense times a million.

    Before you argue with me, it has been widely reported that the owners of the Torygraph told David Cameron they would do all in their power to get him re-elected, and yet according to that is less partisan than the Mirror!

    No surprise who the OP is... yet more attempts to rile people up.

    Merry Polling Day OP... we all love you.

    I think it was a link from Guido Forkes blog which shows that the most partisan newspapers are on the left

    So, to add to my earlier comment you have a problem with one of the few left wing papers out there. Basically you are saying they should all be right wing.

    WOW - that's a very clear and concise diagram/graph isn't it? ;-)

    I'm not sure how I got by without all the useful stuff that gets posted on here each day.

    I'm sat here re considering in the light of those pretty coloured columns :confused:

    Not trying to rile anybody, just adding to the debate. It's a published document.

    It's you that tries to rile people with your constant ad-hominem attacks.

    Oh the irony of that statement.

    From that same graph one can see that of the 8 papers, 5 are vehemently pro-Tory, 2 are pro-Labour and one is vaguely neutral. Tells it's own story.

    In fact the Sun and the Mirror very nearly cancel each other out. That would leave 4 against 1.

    Whilst The Mirror hasn't printed a photo of Cameron struggling with a bacon sandwich they have spent the last five years printing lies about the Tories and their policies.

    Socialist Worker tends to be a little biased in my experience.

    Surely the most partisan is The National... not that anybody actually reads it.

    The Mirror can do no wrong.

    Hacked off were so full of rage and anger at the Murdoch group hacking- so desperate for the media to be controlled. Deafening silence about Labour supporting Mirror hacking. Labour not as "outraged" about that. Wonder why?

    Don't mention the Mirror or Guardian or Express or Independent. Remember the whole media supports the Tories

    More or less an entire thread with people not even bothering to check the evidence in the OP.

    Which is exactly what the Torygraph and Daily Mail do about the Labour party and that hasn't been for just the last 5 years.

    The moral of the story is don't bother with papers if you want an impartial view.

    Oh and that Order Order website is horrible!

    At least the Mirror editor hasn't sent out an email to readers telling them how to vote.
