You wrote quite a long text, but none of it supports the equivalence of Breitbart and the Guardian you’re trying to defend.

The two examples given are somewhat strange in that they seem to skew to the right. Sure, they’re examples of bad journalism, but it’s not comparable to the campaign style propaganda operation of Breitbart.

Huh. I actually gave, like, five examples, argued why it's not possible to have a clear equivalence, and concluded that Fox News would have been a somewhat more apt comparison?

It's interesting that you view some of the examples as right-wing though.
