Well, that's a bit over the top but you said it ! It's frightening the number of people that believe and follow these rags.
The only papers I take much notice of are the Telegraph and the Guardian. They both have their own political slants, which you can take into account, but the stories are usually based on facts. Most of the rest of the British press think nothing of totally fabricating stories if it sells more papers or pleases the owners and gives readers what they want to hear.
FWIW the Telegraph have also covered the Bloomberg story, if you prefer that source.
