"So this will make the liberals in general alarmist and out of touch, not just the editors of the Guardian?"
One is the other right? How often are conservatives equated with the rabid foaming of "Spin-O-Matic" 'Reilly? How often are Christians blamed for the views of Buchanan and Falwell? Its guilt by association, and typical, just for you, strawman tactics which have proven extremely successful in the past.
It will be even worse for any journalist who tries to seek confirmation on this story because they will be treated with the contempt they rightly deserve for believing such tripe. Anyone quoting the article in conversation will look foolish later on when none of it comes to pass.
Red herring, is the term I believe.
