What National Newspaper do you read?
Be honest...
I believe that the newspaper you read, pretty much reflects what type of person you are. I always find information like this interesting; useless; but
interesting. It's kind of the psychologist side of me...  To this end I would love to know what type of National Newspaper most of us
regularly read (3-5 times a week) the most; if you do read that is.
My apologies to you's over the water that don't get or read UK newspapers, you could still vote however, the list is pretty much in order
of International content. Top 5 basically finance/business based. Next 2-3 less finance/business based. The rest just eye candy and entertainment
publications IMHO

Lots of people only get a Sunday paper (I know it's not just me- I used to be a Professional News Delivery Agent  ) so do we vote for Sundays
using the same name as the weekly?
Cheers,
James

I buy the Sun when I get a paper, I don't really care much for other peoples' opinions. I get a crossword I can do, the name game, 9
letter word, word workout and a couple of sudokus plus a tv guide on Saturday. The free cd today was the icing on the cake .

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

None - they're all full of shyte. take away the ads, the gossip, the cartoons. tv listings and sport and there isn't usually much news.
The little that remains of the paper is largely opinion or is biased one way or another. And the news in a paper is a day old.
I want news, not your opinion of the news.

too many choices.
I dont buy newspapers, as they are either not to my politcal taste, or are written for the mentality of a ten year old.
I get my news from TV and radio five live - and i check the bbc news website regularly.

no newspapers here too, spending up too 8 hours a day behind the wheel i tend too listen too "5 live" especially the phone ins, 5 live
gets a bit boring as the day goes on so (same news repeated every 1/2 hour or so) its then usually over to radio two for the big quiz and sally

Don't read em, no time to sit down and read them!
I read PPC mag cover to cover whilst sat down comfortably in the bathroom, as I find this is an ideal way to get a few minutes peace!!!
That's pretty much it for me and reading.
Not particularly into books either, again too little time, but when I do read one, it tends to be in one or two big sessions. Last book I read was
Touching the Void, and brilliant it was too.
