For example, with Google Reader, I can pretty much read the Guardian in its entirety without actually having to click through to the website.

		<description><![CDATA[We are seeing a rise in Hyperlocal Journalism (HLJ) as, perhaps, an alternative to the traditional local news outlets. The growing acceptance of hyperlocal as a good source of news, as well as a means of holding local authorities to account, has been exacerbated further by the planned launch of Guardian Local next year. This [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shanecroucher.co.uk&#038;blog=6789040&#038;post=473&#038;subd=shanecroucher&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

The author&#8217;s profile on the Guardian says: Peter Jones works in the financial sector and lives in West London Why would the Guardian take this dreadful comment piece, potentially damaging their credibility, from an ordinary guy?

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know if Charlotte Allen is being deliberately patronising and dismissive in her Guardian column, but one thing&#8217;s for sure &#8211; she&#8217;s talking bollocks. Atheists are attacked for feeling like they are getting a rough deal, as Allen scathed: My problem with atheists is their tiresome – and way old – insistence that they [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shanecroucher.co.uk&#038;blog=6789040&#038;post=84&#038;subd=shanecroucher&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Guardian&#8217;s George Monbiot has interviewed Hazel Blears following a series of battling columns in which Monbiot suggested that Blears changes her principles to suit government policy, rather than keep her integrity and stick to her guns. He claims she &#8220;stands only for election&#8221;. Blears was one of &#8220;Blair&#8217;s babes&#8220;. She was a strong ally of the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shanecroucher.co.uk&#038;blog=6789040&#038;post=44&#038;subd=shanecroucher&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
