Which newspapers do CCers read?

[HLaB]

I don't buy any either; if I hear/see something I'm interested in, I'll google it.

I read The Kingston Whig-Standard (my utterly terrible local), The Globe and Mail (Canadian), Guardian, New York Times, Le Monde (France) and Asahi Shimbun (Japan) on a regular basis (one a week catch up in the case of the last three. I read The Daily Telegraph when I visit my parents, which is rather like visiting a parallel universe (that's the reading the Telegraph bit, rather than visiting my parents).

At the moment, I'm sticking to Al-Jazeera online to find out what's really going in in the Middle East.

 

[DiddlyDodds]

None
All full of sensationalised lies

Another Grauniad reader here.... but very rarely buy it any more. Only when on a long plane or train trip. Dip into online version occasionally.

I really liked The Independent when it started and until it lost its way in the mid 90s, shame as it was a good paper.

Yes - me too...although Robert Fisk wrote a good report on the Middle East yesterday. I'll read anything but be seduced by little - I'm too thick for all that subtle politicising stuff.

Indie, Guardian on a Saturday because I like the cooking bit in the magazine and Observer because I try and like the crossword.

And as for all the $h1t that comes tumbling out along with supplements...

The Saturday Guardian cryptic keeps me amused for a few days until I've cracked it or it has cracked me and gives me a reason to buy it.

Like Ape, I detest the paraphernalia and fliers that come with it though.

 

[Aperitif]

Have you been for a paraphernalia this morning, Rich?

 

[Cletus Van Damme]

I do not read any, I look at the boobies if a Daily Sport is lying around at work, but never bother reading any of it. I never watch the news on tv either, it is far too depressing and over the top.

 

[ventoux50]

None.

Cant see the point in spending money to read the opinions of other people - most of whom have their own agenda to follow and don't necessarily tell the truth to make their spurious points.

 

[Night Train]

I don't buy papers.
I do sometimes read the Metro when it is there and my folks get the Mail so I swipe the TV guide.

When I am bored I will read the cartoons in just about any paper that happens to be around and maybe have a go at the crosswords.

 

[tyred]

I haven't bought any papers in years.

I do like a flick trough them if I find papers lying around in a cafe, pub or whatever but wouldn't waste money on them.

 

[TheBoyBilly]

Too many Guardian readers, that's why this country is in such a mess. Still the way the G's circulation is going you won't be reading this for much longer

Yes there's a lot of non newspaper readers on here too so I have belatedly added a 'none of them' option.
Haven't heard of 'The Metro' - is it a Manchester one?

 

[Night Train]

The Metro.
It is a free 'urban-national' paper that is favoured by commuters as it is often found on buses and trains. I guess it is Londoncentric-national as many of the letters and texts are London based but the paper is available in other cities.
There is a strong Nemi following though how some readers can claim to be in love with a cartoon Goth I don't know. Her friend with the blue hair is much more interesting!
