Not rubbish (pretty harsh Stepan...Chris had his points):

Time Out/thisislondon...are guides.

AZ/multimap are...maps.

Newspapers on wood or in bytes are...reporting from the same sources - so
its a question of what tickles your fancy, in writing style or POV.

Adbusters/UKNM allow people to express personal opinions - perhaps most
valuable on your list.

The sort of content listed here is not what I believe Chris was refering
to. You cannot compare a map or guide book with...say...a comprehensive
analysis of the future of the fishing industry in Norway...that may not be
the best example, but you get the picture. Generic info vs focused or very
current info. If you want niche quality information - you still have to
pay for it.
