The Guardian

The Guardian is a daily newspaper based in the UK that was first established in 1821 under the name The Manchester Guardian. In 1959, it adopted its current name. Alongside its affiliated publications, The Observer and The Guardian Weekly, The Guardian is part of the Guardian Media Group, which is owned by the Scott Trust. This trust was established in 1936 to ensure that The Guardian remains financially and editorially independent, protecting its journalistic integrity and liberal values from outside commercial or political influences. In 2008, the trust transitioned into a limited company, maintaining the same safeguards for The Guardian as intended by its founders. Instead of distributing profits to owners or shareholders, the profits are reinvested back into journalism.
