What's Your Daily read ?

[Tetedelacourse]

I've never had time to buy a paper in the morning, let alone read one. Quite happy with tinternet through the day and the odd Newsnight.

If I did though it would be something from the top shelf.

I've bought The Grauniad nearly every day for the last 35 years. Nowadays I have about an hour to kill before I go to work and as long as the paperboy gets his arse in gear I spend 30 minutes or so reading it. I start with the sport though.
I can't believe the Daily Sport made the list and The Indie and Telegraph didn't!

grauniad for the last 2-3 years. used to be the indie but I got bored with the WE'RE ALL GONNA DIEEEEEEE!!!!! headlnes. It might well be true, but I can't be arsed to read about it every day

The Times. I usually fall asleep by page three so only get it 2-3 times a week.

When I do have time to read a paper, it has always been the Independent, but got to agree with earlier post that it does seem to have lost it's way a bit recently.

Was suffering a long train journey recently and someone had left a copy of The Sun on the seat. Out of interest I had a flick through just to see what it is that "x" million people every day pay good money to read (other than the blee*ing obvious!) and I found about 2 meaningful news items, both one short paragraph in length. I know this was probably par for the course, but it still leaves me astounded by the drivel that people will read.

Buy hey, we're all different. I mean some people don't even ride a bike

The Times when I can get it, otherwise the Schwäbische Zeitung or the Süddeutsche Zeitung. (Well you did ask.)

Well, if you're going to be like that!

Svenska Dagbladet
Dagens Nyheter
Metro

i'm a black, lesbian, immigrant, partially deaf, one legged teacher - for all of those reasons, I read the Guardian.

The Times, I'm in the city don't you know (hides my D. Sport very well too)

If you work in the City you're more likely to read the Financial Times. Anyhow, I read The Economist when I get time - I find it's an excellent way to find out what's going on in the wider world.

You mean there is A.N.Other Times ?

I used to be a Telegraph reader till I gave up buying papers a few years ago. if I buy one now it is The Sun when I fancy a bet as it has the best racing pages, which I know from my days in factory jobs is a main reason for it's popularity among the working class.

I read The Herald most days, it has a Sport section in supplement form which is easily thrown away to leave me with a sportsfree (for sport read 99% football) newspaper.

Hang on.

This thread has gone 3 pages, and the initial poll without naming the Daily Mirror, which is like a mixture of all those papers, and my daily read.

Something a bit twilight zone about all this

Chigley, only ten options to choose for a poll, took the first ten ideas that came in my head !
