Once upon a time, Guardian WAS the Manchester Guardian, and at that time
there was a left-wing newspaper in the US called National Guardian. In
the 60s, the National Guardian migrated from a general Marxist weekly to a
"New Left" organ, and changed its name to Guardian. It then became an
apologist for Maoism, and finally an organizing tool for a new
Marxist-Leninist party which never materialized. I don't know if Guardian
still publishes, but this might help explain why Americans would never let
go of the Manchester origin to distinguish the English paper.
