SCMP is very liberal and quite pro-Western. It’s not even aligned with the views of the CPC let alone controlled by it. I wouldn’t call it a rag as it does sometimes put out serious and important articles - it’s not CNN or BBC level propaganda trash - but its bias is unmistakeable.
Agreed they do have good articles and decent journalism even if I don’t agree with their politics a lot. Its still far better as a source for news on China than any western media.
