Website Introduction
Founded in 1821, The Guardian operates on a unique trust ownership model to ensure editorial independence. It pioneered open journalism, inviting reader contributions. The website is free, supported by donations and memberships (no paywall). Notable for its NSA leaks coverage (Snowden files), The Guardian also excels in environmental reporting. Guardian Labs produces branded content, while its app offers curated editions. The Observer (Sunday sister paper) and Guardian Weekly provide additional perspectives. The platform is carbon-neutral and strongly advocates for digital privacy.:cite[3]
