Which newspapers does everyone read, if any?
I just thought I would ask this as I settle down with a cup of coffee and the Daily Telegraph, my publication of choice.

I read the independent, though not everyday, normally if it has a good leading story or an article I'm intrested in.

My stepdad gets the Sun, I like to read the comics and the Dear Deidre. Most humourous stories.

Observer for me, or the Guardian.
The Sun and Metro get mentions for a simple-read.

Haha, Dear Deidre owns.
"Dear Deidre, I had sex with my boyfriend's mum, and now i am pregnant with his kid. The trouble is, i'm also seeing his father too!"
Sooooo excellent.
Don't really read any papers to be honest. Unless i'm at home and my mum gets the news of the world, which i love to take the piss at.

Examminer for local news, metro if i'm ever on a bus. Other (daily mail) etc love to over-exxagerate their news.

Apparently, the average person is likely to change their marriage more often than their newspaper.
Just a little random fact for you.

Theyre less newspapers and more journals of opinion. Everything is biased one way or another, you cant get news with a slant on it. Then theres the celebrity bullshit they waste so much paper on.

Oooh, and The Spectator. Page after page of informed opinion and debate - it's you're job to decide if you agree or disagree. You can't go wrong.

I dont really read any papers but buy The Sun on a monday and a thursday simply because on those days they update their fantasy football scores for the week and the fantasy football thats run at work is based on the sun rules.
Im 6th outta of 84 people... if i stay there i win £20 :)
Apart from that it's all about keeley on page 3.
I pick up the Metro sometimes on my way to work but dont always read it, i like the Nemi comic :)
As for learning about the happenings in the world i usually watch the news or check out the net.

I need a newspaper and a cup of coffee in the morning. I normally prefer the "Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung" a very informative german newspaper with quite high standards. I am interestend in the opinions of their writers because a news from a agency can interpreted in many different ways. Thats why I like the FAZ and their conservative but very objective writing style.
