I've been idly looking out for the different approaches to quoting among newspapers. The BBC, the Independent, the Times, the Telegraph, the Daily Mail and the Daily Express all use scare quotes (though some aren't completely consistent about it); I couldn't find any instances of scare quotes in the Economist and Guardian articles I found on the subject. (I confess to not doing an exhaustive search on any of these papers.)
