What do you mean by "It's not even an article by the Guardian -- it's an opinion piece"
The author of the piece, Alan Rusbridger, is the Editor-in-chief of the Guardian
- cyphar 7y agoAh, I didn't look up the author's credentials -- I will edit my comment. Often opinion pieces in newspapers are not the same as articles written by journalists and published as fully-fledged articles (usually they have an implicit caveat of "this is not the official opinion of $newspaper").
- teh_klev 7y agoI don't think you need to change anything. Rusbridger is no longer editor of the Guardian (he left in 2015). https://www.theguardian.com/global/2010/aug/26/alan-rusbridger-profile https://www.theguardian.com/global/2010/aug/26/alan-rusbridg...
- cyphar 7y agoI've edited it back -- though whether or not the article is by someone who works at the Guardian is the least important point I'm making.
- teh_klev 7y agoRusbridger moved on in 2015. Also whilst editor he was complicit in the smear campaign against Assange which the Guardian has been running since seeking refuge in the Ecuadorian embassy.
