21. TAZ is Green and FR is left-liberal.

And I've read them all too.

Of course SZ is part of the establishment, which in no way contradicts being more or less pro-SPD--a party that is once again currently in a grand coalition! SPD long ago went neo-liberal. So whether that tastes a bit like FDP (also given the FDP's cultural progressivism of a kind) is six of one, a half-dozen of the other.

Thus SZ is center-leftish-rightish, whereas FAZ is the always-on battle organ of that segment of the bourgeoisie that is permanently pissed off about everything vaguely progressive dating back to women wearing trousers (in the Feuilleton this is weirdly mixed in with technoworship and obeisance to The Singularity). Welt is the bilge version of same, absolutely disgusting.
