Default What Newspapers are you reading?

I'm just wondering what kind of newspapers you read?

Here in the UK we have two types of newspapers, tabloids like the Sun and Express and not forgetting the Mail which are your average daily papers. And broadsheets like the Times and Independent which have more to read in the terms of news items and less gloss.

I myself read the Times and some times the Independent, I also from time to time read U.S.A Today and International Herold Tribune.

Umm, STEED you have missed a catagory.
What catagory does the Sport come under?

Anyway, I don't read newspapers, most news can be caught up with online or on Sky. Am I missing out?

Most peeps around this part of the area seem to read the Sun.


Myself? The Times and Guardian, with occasional smatterings of Telegraph.

Either Guardian or Independent. From non-english speaking ones it's Le Monde, Libération and TA NEA.

I know it makes me sound very uneducated but I don't like to read any at all. I prefer to get my information from the web and other sources.

I used to subscribe to a Denver newspaper, The Rocky Mountain News. I liked the tabloid format (read like a book instead of having to fold over to make the paper managable). About seven years ago the RMN and the Post combined into the Denver News agency or some such thing. The upshot was my turning away from both papers. I'm sceptical that one agency can deliver the news from both sides of an issue without a bias being introduced.

I currently subscribe to nor read either paper except for the odd entertainment section at the local breakfast establishment.

I get all my news from the internet, and yes many sources.

Newspapers continual to have there use after you read all of them. Lighting the fire and a nice paper hat and if you run out of loo paper.

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.
