What's the best newspaper?

Question

Since I hate all the newspapers in The Netherlands (like NRC Handelsblad and Trouw) I want to subscribe to an english newspaper.

Could anyone please recommend me one? At the moment I think that "The Times" is the best out there.

Are you looking for an English newspaper, as in published in England, or are you looking for an English language newspaper?

Answer 2

There are several papers that are called "The TImes":  LA, NY for instance.  Most are pretty left leaning, but I can't imagine they are more liberal than the Dutch ones.
