Thought it would be interesting to ask.
I'm not adverse to buying anything if it suits my purpose, I dont care who owns it or what other people think.
I have been in the habit of late of buying the daily Star on saturday, for the racing pull out and weekly TV Guide. I have though started liberating the TV guide from a friends daily Mirror.
I am more likely to read a range online out of coveiniance.
Sometimes buy the Racing Post and the Economist Magazine.
Over the years ive bought every paper going, to me they are conveiniance only rather than general news.

I am acquainted with enough newspaper journalists that I would never, ever willingly contribute to their earnings. Tabloid journalists are awful human beings. I regret that I can't really put the sheer self serving, dishonest, spiteful, entitled nastiness of such people into words. They are like a cross between personal injury lawyers, used car salesmen and child molesters. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. | ||

I buy Private Eye regularly, that's really the only news source I pay for (other than BBC via TV License). I read The Guardian and The Telegraph online. Sometimes I flick through newspapers that people leave on the train, Metro mostly. | ||

I get the Alpha Male Review, and the Gravediggers' Journal. I'm also collecting one of those magazine subscription things ? You know, where the first issue is £2.99, and all subsequent issues are, like, £5.99 or something ? When I've collected them all, I'll have all the bits necessary to make a 1:24 model of the Titanic. So far I've got a funnel, and what looks like an anchor. " Under this playful, boyish exterior beats the heart of a ruthless, sadistic maniac " | ||

New Stateman irregularly Sutton Coldfield Observer for its 'humour', especially where Birmingham is concefrned. The rest of my news I get on-line: BBC, Grauniad, The Register and some others I forget. Cunt busting is the new black. | ||

None. 'To loose' means 'to let go'. 'Lose' means you can't find it. 'Discrete' means separate. 'Crescendo' means 'growing'. 'Fulsome' doesn't mean 'full'. 'Unique' doesn't mean 'very unusual'. | ||

BBC News is on my favourites and is the first site I look at every day. I use the BBC page on my Blackberry for rolling news during the day. I use Calibre to suck the Guardian and Telegraph websites to my Kindle every day. I generally won't buy a newspaper during the week, but I'll see Metros and Evening Standards when I'm going through town. When I don't have a busy Sunday, which is increasingly rare these days, and I fancy a lazy day reading the *papers* I'll buy an Observer and Sunday Times.
Just remember, when you think you're free, that crack inside your fucking heart is me. | ||

PMQ's is the only *manual* recording from Sky News on my Sky Box. I share your saddo-ness and raise you one 'The Only Person Who Watches BBC Parliament When it Re-runs Old Election Night Specials from the 1970's"
I used to have a subscription to The New Statesman, but didn't renew it. Changed to NME and Kerrang! Instead. Just remember, when you think you're free, that crack inside your fucking heart is me. |
