  • Are The Guardian and The Observer about to part ways? - With Labour in power, the paper should be driving the agenda - instead, it's at war with itself

The article discusses the potential separation of The Guardian and The Observer, two prominent British newspapers under the same ownership. The Guardian, known for its liberal stance, and The Observer, the world's oldest Sunday newspaper, have been linked since 1993 when The Guardian Media Group (GMG) acquired The Observer. Recent reports suggest that GMG might be considering selling The Observer due to financial pressures, including a significant drop in advertising revenue and the costs associated with transitioning to a digital-first strategy. This move could be part of a broader strategy to streamline operations and focus on digital growth, although it would mark the end of a long-standing partnership. The decision is influenced by the need to adapt to changing media consumption habits and the economic challenges facing traditional print journalism.
