Surprised you have put the MOS in with the other two. Although I think the other two (and the Express) actually enjoy the howls of outrage they get from the pinkos on the left.

Yeah, I don't doubt they are proud of the crap they print and the proportion of the country they indoctrinate with their usual nonsense about immigrants, royals and the weather that's gonna kill us. I wonder what page Princess Diana is on today?

I wonder what page Princess Diana is on today? Yeah, because the left wing press never does that does it? The Guardian and Mirror have been caught lying out of their arse more times than all those lot you have put together.

I'm not always impressed with the Gaurdian to be fair - I try and vary the sources I use. I find the Guardian has gone a bit down hill since the editorial shift last year. I'd never read the Mirror either! But yeah left wing press of course have bias too but the Mail really is on a different level of simpleton indoctrination.

I think the Express is far worse than the Daily Mail for indoctrination, at leats they give opinion columns to people from all sides from Cameron to Corbyn and Clarke to Farron, the Express would never do that. I like the Mail on Sunday though, they treat everyone the same, they have destroyed Labour with investigations into groups like momentum and showed some rotten stuff inside the Conservatives with the Tatler Tory bullying investigation, it reminds me now of how the Sunday Times used to be, good journalism taking months and months to produce.

That's fair - I used to rate the times also but only really read the FT weekend nowadays. Is The Mail On Sunday still a completely separate team. I'll be interested to have a look if it's improved its journalistic integrity.

Yes Mail on Sunday and Daily Mail are completely seperate teams, offices etc Pretty much similar to the way The Times and the Sunday Times works.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 22 October 2016 Posted 22 October 2016 When on a long journey, or occasionally on holiday, but that's it.
Wymsey Posted 22 October 2016 Posted 22 October 2016 Probably 3 years ago. Only picked up the Leicester Mercury but even my local newsagents don't sell it much more now, as most like me prefer to read at convince online.
AyewJoking Posted 22 October 2016 Posted 22 October 2016 buy the sun most days for work, lots of sensationalised, depressing shít in there but that kind of sums me up as a person.
SystonFox Posted 22 October 2016 Posted 22 October 2016 Other than purchasing the Sun for the sea life centre vouchers fairly recently I don't buy any newspapers. my old man buys a mercury every weekend but I think the content in that is thinning out when I read it. was discussing this with my wife earlier.... do young teens still do paper rounds nowadays? 15 years ago I was delivering every night to 40+ houses and more on Saturdays but I don't imagine getting a paper delivered on a daily basis is a thing anymore

sdb Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 For me it was when we won the league. Bought most bar the outright xenophobic ones. Other than that I have no idea. Probably on a train journey about a year ago!
foxy boxing Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 I buy the mercury on the Monday especially if we have won at the weekend
Countryfox Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 Long time ago, cus .... And here's a novelty ... The paper boy delivers them ! Modern man or what !
