THE SUN (UK) excels itself

[MikeH]

And you say that's a good article?

[FrustratedPoet]

Shouldn't that be: "And YOU say THAT'S a GOOD article?"

[reds4ever]

Kick a man whiles he down, the compassion is overwhelming.

I guess hat by-election result must have got Murdoch a bit worried

[Worthingtons]

The sun is a Garbage paper, but aimed at the masses who are stupid enough to buy it.

The Mail is a good paper tho, I prefer the telegraph for content but the Mail is in a more readable (will fit on lap) format.

And as for the Guardian

[MikeH]

Forget I said anything. I confused brands of beer.

Page3 is the tops.

Also, today's top story is hillarious.

[Immortal Wombat]

The one that Iain posted 6 posts ago? Yes.

No.

[Timexwatch]

In that case, I second Lindley's choice.

No to page3? Heathen!

The Guardian/Observer and The Idependent are the only publications that could be accurately described as "Newspapers" in Britain. The rest are trash for idiots.

[FrustratedPoet]

The Times isn't bad. And I wouldn't describe the Financial Times as "for idiots", but am not qualified to comment on it's usefulness to those in the financial sector.

The Sun, as a microcosim of the first 5 things any male may say on waking up, works well.
1) Oh god. Where am I?
2) Nice tits love.
3) Really, how interesting?
4) Money, What money?
5) What's the sport?

[Sandman]

The Sun is a beacon of ignorance. I'd dearly love to tighten up the media laws and run Murdoch out of Britain.

I was dissapointed with the indy over its handling of the iraq war. Didnt its banner line used to be something about 'the broader view'? It seemed as anti-biased as other papers were pro. Its supplement, talk of the town, on sundays is pretty good stuff.

And mike, the opposition, perfect comeback

depends what you want from a newspaper. me? I just want the sport and whats on TV though if there's nice looking girl on page 3 so much the better.

I've tried going 'upmarket' but got as far as the Mail and gave up (I liked the articles and reviews, but kept getting 'wound up' by the obvious slant they put on all their reporting)

You wanted upmarket and you went for The Mail? Jesus man, you're completely cold there

Nope, it was supposed to be the first step on the way up (like a base camp in mountaineering), but I got to the Mail, decided it wasn't worth the effort and turned back

Now I'm back to my old method of selecting my morning paper, who's got the best totty on it's centre pages. War? what war? ah, the simple life!
