Contrary to what many might think, I´m actually not that big of a fan of the Guardian newspaper. When I lived in the UK for awhile I enjoyed reading it, but my preferred paper for hard news actually eventually became the Telegraph. Sure, you had to read it with the appropriate ideological filter and ignore the planted right wing nonsense stories about American politics and certain foreign policy issues, but an analagous statement would be true about every Brit paper.
I agree with Kevin Drum that an American Guardian weekly would be a Good Thing if it was designed to compete with Time, Newsweek, and the Economist, and not such a good thing if it´s more a political opinion journal. But, I assume it´ll be the former.
