The Guardian itself is often, at least arguably, a good illustration of the above.
It seems to me that all publishers and persons employed by them have political views and personal tastes which has the potential to influence what they choose to publish. Publish too much rubbish and you will not have a publishing business.
And honestly, a suspicion raised by a left-wing newspaper about a publisher who has expressed right-wing views? Still, the best way to deal with a suspicion is to investigate it.
