Extraordinary quote of the day

It comes from the Spectator Business:

Huntington is impressed by how the Guardian has responded to eroding readership. ‘They’ve transformed themselves from a lefty broadsheet published in Manchester and London to being one of the world’s great opinionated journalism brands,’ he says. ‘It has more readers in Texas now than in the UK.’

Good grief: perhaps the Guardian will become liberal again.

In the Manchester sense and not the Texan one of course.
