INTOLERANT (NEO) LIBERAL VALUES IN UK MEDIA

Today's Financial Times has an article on "the rise of liberal intolerance in America". This is a serious matter, but the irony of the title could not help but give me a quiet chuckle. As I've noted previously, the paper - whose objectivity I've come to value over the years - has embarked upon some fairly hysterical coverage of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership of the Labour Party. Whilst this is by no means exclusive to the FT - the BBC is just as bad -  it does beg the question whether this is a Liberal or Neo-Liberal bias, or indeed, a combination of the two.
