    Do you have anything to back this up? I’ve never felt The Guardian was using euphemisms

      They are supposed to act as the progressive paper in the UK but when it comes down to it they tow the line.
      Somewhat less obvious but still.
      Already clear from long ago.
      A good example is Jullian Assange and how they fully went along with smearing him and printing lies.

      Do you have anything to back this up?

      There is no obligation to do what anyone can look up themselves.
      Anyway, this took me 3 seconds to find:

      half a dozen current and former staff at the BBC, Sky, ITN, the Guardian and the Times have disclosed the extent of anti-Palestinian prejudice in their newsrooms.

        Do you have any examples of the Guardian dancing around the word ‘killed’? The fact you have to resort to their reporting on unrelated issues seems to suggest that’s not really the case
