One thing I have noticed about UK papers are all the extra you now get news, fashion, entertainment magazines and a heap full of leaflets which are most often pizza ones.


I dread reading a paper once I'm married and having a jewelry brochure fall out

"I see Iran has succumbed to our demands."
"Rich?"
"Hmm?"
"Look at this ring!"
"Is wha?"
"Only $700!"
"Only?! I could buy a middle eastern state for that!"

I read (Here in Orlando) the Orlando Sentinel. And as for using them as "loo" paper, I'll prefer tissues thank you.

The Inderpendant.

I don't particualy like it, but it seams to be one of the lesser of the evils.

Canberra times, the Australian for real news - and for my entertainment/trashy read i'll go the Daily Telegraph.

$60 got me a subscription for the year to all 3 papers, including delivery on weekends. not a bad buy hey:rock: :rock:

Guardian for me, when I've time to read it. Otherwise I use the BBC website.

Oh and of course this forum as well,I've picked up a lot from in here.

The Sydney Morning Herald for it's content, The Australian for balance against the SMH and the Dailytelegraph on the train as I get a free copy due to people leaving it behind when they get off.:up:

I also get the free MX, but that isn't a paper, it 's a printed advert with some writing to make it seem useful:smug:

When I buy neswpapers, my main choices are:
La Repubblica or Il Corriere della Sera (italian), Le Monde (french), New York Times (english).

Most of time, however, I simply pick up the first free one available in underground station near home.
When I have plenty of time for reading, I always prefer books.

I read the Chicago Tribune on a daily basis. In Chicago there are two main papers, the Tribune and the Sun-Times, and the people that read them are very different. The Tribune is traditionally conservative and generally read by the businesspersons of Chicago, while the Sun-Times is a liberal paper read mostly by blue collar workers. It's kind of bizarre but you can tell alot about a person by which paper he/she reads, unless of course it happens to be me, as I am neither conservative nor a businessperson, I just think the Trib is better!:doh:

Main area of interests for me is politics and news abroad followed by home news unless the news here gets interesting.

The Guardian & Irish Times when I'm at home. In the US I read the NYT and the Boston Globe. And of course the Weekly Dig
