January 28, 201115 yr Used to be an avid Mirror reader for its sports coverage, but dropped off, only stuff i read now is the free Metro on the bus. Girlfriend still gets a Star, but she likes reading shite about Jordan & Kerry.
January 28, 201115 yr No mate. Full of sensationalist bullsh1t; worthless tat (e.g. the stultifying adventures of Jordan/Katie Price) or just plain old bad news. Even tits on page 3 are worthless now when two computer button clicks can deliver everything your little heart could desire.
January 28, 201115 yr I bought the Bolton News yesterday, purely for the tribute to Nat, first time in about 7 years.
January 28, 201115 yr I buy that new I paper by the independent, its a decent read plus a distinct lack of made up celebrity gossip. Top stuff.
January 28, 201115 yr I haven't bothered for a while, I come on here now to get an unbiased, well thought out view of what's going on in the world. If it's not being discussed on WWays, then it's not worth knowing about
January 28, 201115 yr There is one problem though. If we all stop bothering, life would probably never be the same. Nothing, but nothing, wraps chips and makes them taste better. Edited January 28, 201115 yr by bolty58
January 28, 201115 yr only time i ever 'read' the paper is whilst sat in the indian/chinese waiting for a takeaway. full of absolute sensationalist codswallop.
January 28, 201115 yr I buy the sun just to read on the train to work (winds people up in work too, liverpool, when i walk in with it). Times on sunday
January 28, 201115 yr Aye, the Sun, eh? Scousers claim to hate it, but they're all happy enough to take Murdoch's waged at News International just off the East Lancs.
January 28, 201115 yr Freebies metro and M.E.N at work, occasionally the sun or star on a saturday if im in work, usually the NOTW or Sunday times. I agree though the amount of shite in em is a joke. I always read stories purely to see where the hack is making shit up! NOTW for instance is utter gash but rather funny if your informed enough to know its bollocks
January 28, 201115 yr With having the luxury of an ipad and iphone, where ever I go I can access news. Can't even remember the last time I bought a paper!
January 28, 201115 yr As I'm infornt of a computer everyday, I find buying them a waste of money TBH.
January 28, 201115 yr Used to buy the BEN pretty much every day until last year when I was working away and got out of the habit. I actually read any old newspaper left lying around in the brew cabin, the best thing about them is apart from the football scores it does not really matter how old they are either. Same tat, different day.
January 28, 201115 yr Guy i sit next to at work does that, got a stack of papers from the past 2 weeks, reads each one thoroughly. Was reading the sports pages and write up of the weekend before lasts games today. Think hes special!
January 28, 201115 yr No mate. Full of sensationalist bullsh1t; worthless tat (e.g. the stultifying adventures of Jordan/Katie Price) or just plain old bad news. Even tits on page 3 are worthless now when two computer button clicks can deliver everything your little heart could desire. Just checked, and that's the first use of the word stultifying in WW history. Good mon "Goat" appears 115 times - I think we know the main culprit there
January 28, 201115 yr I subscribe to the Telegraph and have bought it every day for 32 years, but I don't read it as thoroughly as hitherto. Edited January 28, 201115 yr by boltondiver
January 28, 201115 yr I subscribe to the Telegraph and have bought it every day for 32 years, but I don't read it as thoroughly as hitherto. Used to read the Telegraph at work ages ago, but was pleased to see recently that the first two 'across' answers in the little crossword still make a phrase.
January 28, 201115 yr Morning paper - never BEN - hardly ever, maybe three or four times a year Sunday Times - once every couple of months if I have a lazy Sunday Don't see the point when all the news is available much quicker online.
January 28, 201115 yr As I spend most of my day on the computer I like to have my dinner away from my desk and read the paper.
January 28, 201115 yr As I spend most of my day on the computer I like to have my dinner away from my desk and read the paper. The "news" is probaby 24 hours old by then though, surely.
