>It could, for example, balance it out by recruiting 50% via the Graun's big rival, the Daily Mail, but it doesn't.

I don't think hiring through a tabloid newspaper would help the integrity of the company. You could have at least said the Telegraph.

The Mail is as far to the right as the Graun is to the left, the Torygraph is centre-right. Not to mention that the Graun is s tabloid now...

The Guardian is not a tabloid newspaper. The Telegraph is a broadsheet.

The Guardian is also not as far left as the Mail is right, although that is objective and could be debated all day.

I think you mean subjective. Unless like the typical Graun reader you believe that it's everyone else that's biased...
