Noam Chomsky said the FT is the only paper that tells the truth, since the interests of the readers and the publication are aligned in making money. One thing I read from Superforecasters though is that the best forecasters read a vast array of sources, actively challenging their own biases. It seemed that the most realistic perspective was not to be found in any one newspaper.

I suspect that Chomsky was taking a swipe at aleged money-grubbing readers, but I agree. It's refreshing to read their advertising charter.
