Leaving the Daily Mail

[Inertia]

I guess you guys are right in that I shouldn't tell her what to read but she had expressed an interest in reading something else so I hoped I could find something. Maybe the best plan is to get her a different paper each day and see if she finds one she likes and if she ends up with the Mail, so be it.

People still read newspapers?

Analogue folk in a digital age.

An alternative to the Daily Mail? Der Sturmer or Volkische Beobachter would do nicely. I would suggest an English alternative, if her German's not so great, but the BUF's house journal was, er, the Daily Mail.

We are in the instant news digital age where the old style Daily Mail print edition could be considered as intellectual.

So what is the point?

You try scrunching an iPad up into a pair of wet boots to dry them out...

I remember when Chris Mullins MP wrote his memoir and it was serialised on R4. He told of the day a constituent came to his office with a long list of rants - immigrants, the NHS, the EU, the whole lot. Apparently he eventually said to her: "I think I can see the solution to all your problems".
"Really? What?"
"Stop reading the Daily Mail...."

I was at my nephew's house last weekend and I asked him if I could borrow a newspaper. He said he was very sorry, didn't I know that newspapers are very old-fashioned, and I could borrow his ipad.

That pesky fly never knew what hit it.

I read the Mail on-line as I like to keep up with whos' doing who and who's paying

Pendant alert!

Pendant?

too earnest?

 

[hoopdriver]

I get the 'too earnest' bit but 'pendant' and 'pedant' are two different words, not to be confused...
